I think that Unix's strength is small independent programs communicating over standard I/O makes you assume that every environment must be a hammer for that nail. The JVM environment is philosophically quite different from Unix. Don't use a JVM language to write one-liners that have to be loaded every time they're run. There's not much point in people continuing to defend Clojure and/or the java ecosystem; unix has its place and so does java. You've noticed a symptom of something fundamental in java, you're not particularly happy about it, so choose a different tool. Hashbang script hacks, nailgun, or other workarounds aren't going to change your mind. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
