I haven't tried it yet -- the installation looks to be a bit of a pain.

AFAICT, though, it would be a good replacement for bsh and a step up
from the current situation, as bsh is not maintained. Having something
build into the JDK is a big plus.

At the same time, the clojure route has the advantage of a sane
communication layer with the running process. I know that Emacs has
communicated through a pipe with processes for a long time, but parsing
command line output never seems like a fantastic idea to me.

Of course, the two ideas are not necessarily a dichotomy. If we had good
connectivity with a clojure process via nrepl, then clojure could also
launch a Java REPL process. Depending on the Java REPL API, this should
avoid the nastiness of parsing.
