 To see a live "Hello World" Ring app, run:
 
-    $ clj example/hello_world.clj
+    $ java -cp "lib/*" clojure.main example/hello_world.clj
 
 Now visit `http://localhost:8080/` in your browser; the Ring app will respond to your request with a simple HTML page indicating the time of day.
 
-Note that your `clj` script needs to add the `src` directory and the jars in `lib` to your classpath.

 To see a more sophisticated Ring app, run:

 * If you request `http://localhost:8080/` in your browser the `ring.handler.dump` handler will respond with an HTML page representing the request map that it received (see the `SPEC` for details on the request map).
 * If you request `http://localhost:8080/clojure.png`, the `ring.middleware.file` middleware will detect that there is a `clojure.png` file in the app's `public` directory and return that image as a response.
