If you do end up trying it out and hit any roadblocks, please don't hesitate to file an issue. I'd be very interested in hearing how it goes!

This is fantastic, thank you for making and sharing it?
Is there any chance of Heynote supporting Clojure syntax one day?

The variable isn't mutated, actually — it's rebound. See http://natescottwest.com/elixir-for-rubyists-part-2/, for example.

I have the same problem with Sublime Text 3 — Ghostnote doesn't detect it at all. Detaching doesn't help.

It's not actually that JVM startup time is slow, it's Clojure startup time in particular. See:

Not disagreeing with your other points, but these days there is a Windows binary (https://atom.io/faq), too. On Linux you can build from source.

You can also use "cd -" to go back to the previous path:
$ cd /
$ pwd
/
$ cd /tmp
$ pwd
/tmp
$ cd -
$ pwd
/
Not the same, of course, but still useful, I think.

Re:XPath is actually pretty useful once it stops being confusing

Just curious: what are the "bigger and better things" that have replaced XSLT? From what I can tell, it's still being used quite a lot, especially in the world of structured documentation. For something like transforming massive amounts of XML with a great amount of structural variety to another format, XSLT would certainly be my first choice.
