it’s probably the same issue

bozhidar06:03:47

Emacs has its own exec-path, which is initialized from the env PATH, but on OS X this doesn’t work properly

bozhidar06:03:06

as there’s a different set of env vars for GUI and terminal apps

bozhidar06:03:21

exec-path-from-shell solves this problem pretty well

bozhidar06:03:41

alternatively you can just add lein’s installation dir to exec-path yourself

Hi I have a general Emacs (not Clojure-specific) question. When you need to run some process in the background for your project (say run a web server or tail a log), how do folks generally do it? I’ve been using projectile-run-project but it seems like there ought to be alternatives to compilation mode for this kind of thing.

wunsch14:03:29

Like do folks just use a separate terminal or M-x shell…?

jethroksy14:03:42

I run a shell script that starts everything up

kliph14:03:25

@wunsch: have you tried M-x eshell?

wunsch14:03:37

@kliph: Yes I have; just kind of curious if there was some idiomatic way of doing this.

thank-you for the ExecPath info, @bozhidar, I look forward to fixing this over the weekend...
