Of course, you could also just use cljr: http://github.com/liebke/cljr

..or leiningen http://github.com/technomancy/leiningen/blob/master/README.m...

Leiningen's goals are slightly different than clrj's. Leiningen is more like a Maven type project descriptor/build system whereas cljr is more like an easy_install-esque tool. cljr can be used without creating a project.

Yes, and then you would also be able to install libraries without editing a shell script.

Yes, but it does have a repl command, and a swank plugin, and I like using it as a virtualenv-type tool even when I'm not working on a project. (And most of the time I am. I find the best way to learn is to attempt to write a real piece of software, and it has the added bonus that I might be able to add something to my portfolio.)

Is clojure planning to integrate with eclipse? That strikes me as a good way to get new users.

Keep it up Antonio! Even though my comment has nothing to do with Clojure, but I just wanted to let you know that I'm very impressed by quality of your average post. You're like Joel Spolsky of Web 2.0 :)
