I'm trying to rewrite the wf.bat to a linux version, but I was a bit
puzzled what all the ;%~dp0 's mean. Apparently the bash version of it
is ${0%/*}
java -cp ~/src/clojure/clojure.jar;${0%/*}clj;${0%/*}java -
Dnet.sourceforge.waterfront.plugins=${0%/*}clj/net/sourceforge/
waterfront/ide/plugins clojure.main ${0%/*}clj/net/sourceforge/
waterfront/ide/main.clj %*
It seems like you're also assuming 'clj' to exist?
