Looks gorgeous!

Interestingly, the whole idea of "the environment (and the IDE) is dynamic" is present in almost any Smalltalk dialect.

The file is just a convenient way to serialize the code but is not necessary for the act of programming.

Damn, I was expecting this from Ruby, I thought Clojurers were happy to use emacs :p

This really looks great. The doc and play views alone would be fabulous as I'm trying to learn clojure. Seems like an incredible sandbox environment for learning the language and exploring open source to understand how things are working. What are your plans for releasing/availability?
