 == Installation
 
-The Clojure CLI can be installed via Homebrew, bash/posix script, or Powershell depending on the platform. See the <<xref/../../../guides/install_clojure#,installation guide>> for details and the <<xref/../../../releases/tools#,release page>> for version information. You can also read the <<xref/../../../guides/deps_and_cli#,guide>> for a longer tutorial.

See the <<xref/../../../guides/install_clojure#,installation guide>> for details and the <<xref/../../../releases/tools#,release page>> for version information. You can also read the <<xref/../../../guides/deps_and_cli#,guide>> for a longer tutorial. For artifact building, check out the <<xref/../../../guides/tools_build#,tools.build guide>>.
 
 Any version of the Clojure CLI can use any version of the Clojure language. Generally it is best to use the latest <<xref/../../../releases/tools#,version of the CLI>> to have the latest features and fixes. Given a CLI version A.B.C[.D], the default <<xref/../../../releases/downloads#,version of Clojure>> used at the REPL will be A.B.C, however you can specify an older (or newer!) version of the language in your dependencies.
 
 [[usage]]
 == Usage
 
-The CLI is invoked via either `clojure` or `clj`. In general, you can treat these interchangeably, but `clj` includes `rlwrap` for extended keyboard editing, of particular use for the REPL. Because `clj` is fewer characters to type, it is most commonly used but this reference will use `clj` for REPL examples and `clojure` for non-REPL examples.

+
+Each execution of the Clojure CLI runs a Clojure program by determining all paths, dependencies, and main entry point, then invoking the program on the JVM. The primary kind of execution is determined by `-X`, `-T`, and `-M` (or their absence). Configuration is defined by one or more <<deps_edn,deps.edn>> files in combination with the <<clojure_cli#opt_index,command-line options>>.
