great!
now i need to read a tutorial on how to ... like i wrote in my last
imagej/clojure email, as an example of a starting point...

That really totally got me off clojure! exactly, exactly what we don't want to do:
learning another extra 'tool', I totally agree with you and these folks on redit! We
want emacs, scheme, the autotool chain and git [bash, but these days i write my
scripts in scheme as well].

Any git somewhere? I'm a good git user, no svn experience
