Re. JFrame/EXIT_ON_CLOSE: The right solution is to use JFrame/DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE instead. I don’t know why so many tutorials (including the Sun Swing trails) use EXIT_ON_CLOSE.

Really enjoying your postings, I have so much to learn :)

I wondered if you’d seen Snow for ABCL? http://common-lisp.net/project/snow/
Sadly my Lisp, Clojure and Java skills are not good :p

Yes, that is necessary if you run the example as a script. But if you use that in the REPL, closing the window will kill the REPL process.

I had to add a
(.setDefaultCloseOperation JFrame/EXIT_ON_CLOSE)
to make the window close correctly.

Very educational. Thanks.

Every time you post something about Clojure I learn something. Thank you for taking the time to blog.
