This will create an incanter subdirectory $ cd incanter First clone Incanter from its Github repository: $ git clone git:///liebke/incanter.git The following examples will assume you cloned IncanterвЂ™s github repository (see below for instructions) and have the repl and swank scripts included with the distribution.ДЇirst, youвЂ™ll need Git and Leiningen to grab and build Incanter. Note: The repl scripts are necessary, since LeiningenвЂ™s repl task does not work correctly with Clojure 1.2. Alternatively, you can clone the full distribution from Github, which includes REPL and Swank start up scripts. Incanter is available on Clojars, so you can include it in your projects by adding it as a dependency in your project.clj file (see below).

So, IвЂ™ll be demonstrating how to build and install Incanter (which includes Clojure and Clojure-contrib), and then set up a development environment with Emacs, Slime, Swank, and Paredit. You may decide itвЂ™s not for you, and luckily there are alternatives, from your favorite editor combined with a REPL to plugins for popular IDEs like Netbeans ( Enclojure), IntelliJ ( La Clojure), and Eclipse ( Counter-Clockwise).Д«ut youвЂ™ll never know if itвЂ™s for you unless you give it a try. Once youвЂ™ve got the basics down though, itвЂ™s worth venturing into the arcane world of Emacs. There is no reason to tackle the complexities of configuring and using Emacs, Slime, and Swank until youвЂ™ve got your head around the basics of Clojure and functional programming. I recommend people use an editor theyвЂ™re comfortable with, combined with a command-line REPL. Emacs is the favored development environment for the majority of Clojure developers, and there are good reasons for that, but personally, I donвЂ™t think it should be the first choice of developers new to Clojure, unless they have used it previously itвЂ™s just too much to learn at once.
