Thanks for the recommendation. Somehow I had overlooked this one previously. I just downloaded and installed it, installed the Plugin (a little weird that there's no "Download and Install" button when you select the plugin, and you have to know to right-click, but the assembla instructions told me I'd have to right click it was okay), but then what? The assembla instructions (http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/clojure/Getting_Started_with_Idea_and_La_Clojure) have a section for "To checkout a project from git" and a section for "To open an existing maven-based project", but I don't want to do either. I want to write and run some Clojure code from scratch. I'd like a REPL and an editor buffer or two... Starting from Create New Project I clicked through a bunch of dialogs that I didn't understand, said okay to a warning about not assigning a JDK (because I didn't know what else to do there), and eventually got what looks like a project window but not (as far as I see) an editor buffer or a REPL. Returning to the assembla instructions I saw (both in the git section and in the maven section) "Choose Tools|Clojure REPL|Add new Clojure REPL to launch a REPL on your project." So I tried this but got "Can't creat REPL. Clojure home path is not configured correctly!" It's possible that this is the environment that I'm looking for, but my new user experience is not going very well at this point. Any pointers would be appreciated.
