If you check out my "installer" branch of clojure-mode[2] you can see
the clojure-install command that checks out clojure, clojure-contrib,
slime, and swank-contrib, then configures Emacs to use these
libraries. I've tested it and it works fine on my machine, but I'm
wondering a couple things:
0) Would it be a useful thing to include in mainline clojure-mode to get
beginners started? It's rather unconventional, but it seems like it
could address a very common problem.
1) How well does it work for others?
