Using Homebrew on OS X?

Want Apache Jena's command-line tools, including the incredibly useful sparql command, but can't be bothered endlessly messing with Jena's environment variables to get them to work?

Try the command below, which installs Jena via a formula made by my colleague Kevin Lyda:

brew install https://raw.github.com/lyda/homebrew/jena/Library/Formula/jena.rb

If it worked, you can now do:

sparql --help

This is experimental! Does it work for you? Any errors? Comment below!

It works beautifully on my OS X v. 10.6.8 :)
