Hey, I don't have a good example, but the right way to do is with resources which are basically just files that live on the classpath:
* Put the files in a folder on your classpath. If your using leiningen, the resources/ directory does this by default. * Get a URL to the file with clojure.java.io/resource. If your file is root/resources/my-project/my-resource.txt, you'd use (resource "my-project/my-resource.txt"). * Read the contents of the file by passing the resource URL to clojure.java.io/reader or one of its friends. When you jar up your app the resource files will be included in the jar and "just work". Hope this helps.
