Scripting in clojure using jark

This looks like a slightly better cake. After all, cake provides a persistent VM and you can run scripts with cake with !#/usr/bin/env cake.

It's nice that it doesn't require ruby and has a few additional features like search & install from clojars, and doc search. But it probably doesn't justify the cost of switching since I can get those functionalities from cljr.

What would really be nice -- the maintainers of lein, cljr, cake, and now jark all need to get together and work together instead of providing competing and slightly different tools.

When I saw this, I thought, "Wow! A better nailgun?!"

But alas, it's built on top of nailgun -- which presumably means that it inherits all the security problems of that older, apparently moribund project.
