As an Emacs user, from my experience the Clojure REPL has much better integration with my editor than any non-LISP I've used, which includes Haskell and Erlang. Most of the time I'm not typing commands into the REPL - instead, I'm evaluating code inline, which means I don't need to jump back and forth from the source file to the REPL. It's a much more interactive and productive experience for me, and I haven't been able to fully replicate anywhere else - though it's possible I haven't discovered the right tools for those other languages yet.

I use CIDER with Emacs for Clojure integration: https://github.com/clojure-emacs/cider
