With Ultra and Mezzano (Common Lisp OS) on HN today, you can feel the Lisp joy :-)
I read the blog article on Ultra several days ago but I just tried it this afternoon. Seems really nice. I would like to play with a new theme to change the screen colors a bit (I assume pull requests are welcome).
Yep, pull requests for colorschemes in particular would be fantastic! It'd be great to flesh out a set of colorschemes to cover the major ones in usage today.
Looks great! I've recently been trimming down on the number of Lein plugins I have installed, but I think this one is deserving of a line in my `profiles.clj`...now how about Boot? ;-)
We've really just started exploring Boot, but given how much better it deals with ClojureScript (especially in the context of http://cljsjs.github.io), we're taking it rather seriously. For my personal side-projects, I've just started a new one with Boot. My experience so far is that it's definitely not as "full-featured" an experience as Lein, but it does feel more "composable" and, dare I say it, more "like Clojure".
I've been using this for a week or so now. I wish I could figure out how to get colorized output in my SublimeREPL, but other than that, I can't say how much better this makes my clojure dev time.
I'm not sure how this will work with Cursive, but Cursive already provides nearly all of this functionality out of the box anyway. Cursive has colourised REPL output for ages, the test results have a graphical diff, and its Java navigation is way ahead of anything else. Cursive will do some stacktrace prettification if you have clj-stacktrace or Aviso pretty installed, but it doesn't automatically prettify all of them - I'll be adding that soon.
Although I guess its not that interactive. There should be more of these instead of gif demos for tty programs though.
