@seancorfield I've typed the code in and pasted it in from your code here and get the same thing - or you mean the quoting thing might be some issue with the quote marks or characters when entering the command in Windows?

seancorfield03:03:25

Windows has weird quoting rules -- different to Linux/macOS -- and cmd.exe and Powershell are different from each other, making it worse.

seancorfield03:03:57

The command I showed you works perfectly -- on Linux/macOS.

Rowan Barnard03:03:26

Yeah I've been meaning to give the WSL2 thing a go for a while, looking more and more likely now that I will, seems it will make things much easier and in the end in the real world when deploying stuff it is mostly going to be running on Linux anyway

seancorfield03:03:23

You can try asking in #clj-on-windows to see if anyone there can help with quoting but, frankly, I gave up trying to run Clojure stuff on Powershell pretty quickly.

Rowan Barnard03:03:55

So macOS is quite good for Clojure dev? I'm kind of interested in the new M1 macs because the chip's really impressive

seancorfield03:03:56

I've been a Mac user since the early '90s but I've been switching over to Windows these last few years -- WSL has made that possible.

(I also switched to my first Android phone last year after many iPhones over the years!)

OK so WSL2 should be fine then, thanks Sean 🙂
