The relevant bits of Groovy's page don't seem more daunting to me: > Setting up your Groovy environment > > Download the Groovy installer or binaries from the downloads page and follow > the installation > instructions.

So, instead of accepting the default installation > path of "c:\Program > Files\Groovy" you will want to change the path to something like "c:\Groovy") One sentence and one caveat. Now, it's preceded by detailed instructions for installing Java, but those same steps are just as applicable to Clojure or any other JVM-hosted language, and having them there is probably not a bad thing. (Though I would replace them with a link - "If you don't have Java, click here and follow the instructions.") JRuby's installation is more manual, but includes examples. All three install on Ubuntu with apt-get, though the latest Clojure there is 1.0. It does come with a "clojure" shell script for starting up a REPL, though. -- Mark J.
