        trying *very hard* to avoid magically named files… the only assumption nos makes is that the current directory is on the load path initially

          so if youre in a folder with a project.clj that has a foo function in it, nos project/foo will run it

            if youre in a folder with a flambo.clj file and a bingo function, nos flambo/bingo will run it. no magic files.

              the files that you load and run can set up the environment (load path/assemblies) for everything else. deps will find their way in there too
