There is a slim version of the clojure jar. See here for example here:

The slim jar probably won't work in an applet, because it does classloader

Yes. My applet is signed. So that is not a problem.
Any thoughts about difference in performance between "slim" and

My applet mostly does swing-stuff, http GETS and POSTS - and audio

The runtime performance should be the same, but the startup time will be
slower because it will have to compile the clojure code at load time.

The slim version has longer startup time, I presume. Otherwise there

Hi,

One of the first things that I want to know how to do when I learn a
new programming language is how to read from or print to a file. The
problem is that none of the clojure books do a good job of explaining
how to do so, in my opinion. What little is said is usually tucked
away and not highlight
I too stumbled upon this a while ago. I might even say that on some
level it's so simple that there is not much documentation about it, and
at some point it gets 'complex' enough that you should know about java
enough.
The simplest way is to slurp or spit. slurp reads a file into a string,

Great question. And great answer.
Seriously! I did not know it could be that easy.
So an http GET just needs 1 lines!:

Is there an equally easy way to do an http POST?

Right invokedynamic doesn't just "mostly benefit object-oriented languages."
A MethodHandle can be used for anything that the JVM can do from a static
method call, to an instance method call, to a constructor, to a field
access.
And in fact the bootstrap method that links an invokedynamic call

We've been experimenting with ClojureScript and D3, a JavaScript DOM-

our work on the Github:

Actually, Clojure's solution is almost identical to a method handle. An

Very cool! I was actually implemented a little visualization lib

Note that most of those examples look a little dated and would benefit from
a heapin' helpin' of clojure.java.io and friends. For instance, slurp is
quite happy to read from a java.net.URL so fetch-url is unnecessary.
Unfortunately slurp is a little under documented.
