I had been working on a tool that provides a persistent JVM for
command line applications. It is called jark.
It does not compete with any of the clojure build tools(lein, cljr),
but cleanly integrates with them.
You can find more about it here: http://icylisper.in/clojure/jark.html
I am yet to m
Cake (http://clojure-cake.org/) has a nice mechanism to get around the
slow startup issue of JVM/Clojure. I built a couple of command line
tools using that. And it has some other nice features for Clojure
development as well.

Cake also aims to solve the startup time problem with a client/server
architecture similar to nailgun.
You can add '#!/usr/bin/env cake' to the top of clojure scripts you
want to be executable, and there's even a built-in filter task for
text manipulation inspired by 'perl -pe'.

I use nailgun to solve the jvm startup time. It works very well.
When I'm editing a 'script' in vimclojure I just hit \ef and my 'nail'
is instantly compiled and available at the command line.
It's about as painless as possible.
I do create a small bash wrapper for each clojure script. The bash
Well, reviving scsh and writing some clojure-ish macros for a lightweight,
fast-starting scheme (e.g. gambit which can compile small utilities, has
excellent unix process, file, and networking already) would be a *lot*
easier than the effort to get any JVM language up to par for the same goal.

I agree. Maybe newlisp (which starts up blazingly fast) will fit the bill
better.

That would be extremely portable too, and there is Inline::Java in CPAN. My
sense is that no one should bother with that until after
Clojure-in-Clojure. I have heard some talk of Clojure on Parrot VM too.

FYI, "ClojureScript" is generally taken to be the name of a Javascript-hosted
runtime for Clojure. Anyway…

Have you look at Scsh?

It's not the most trendy, but being a Scheme at least is nice.
Anyone capable of doing the job properly either won't take any money
or won't come cheap, so you might be better of offering a round of
beer or request bids.

Seriously though, these things tend to go better when you say something like
"I've decided to work on this new project, who wants to help?", instead of

There are difficulties with using Clojure -- or any JVM language -- for
system administration. The first and biggest is the JVM startup time,
making it impractical for command-line use without a separate "server"
process. The second is that Java was explicitly designed to be
OS-independent.
Hi all,
I've decided to offer a 200 USD bounty for implementing "ClojureScript" (a
tentative name), a Clojure API and a convenient command line utility for
performing quick system admin tasks, text manipulation tasks, command line
scripting, etc. similar to the use cases of bash/awk/sed or bash
