Configure clojure syntax highlighting for gedit

Question

How can gedit be configured to highlight Clojure source files?

By default it treats .clj files as plain text.

This GitHub repo contains some files you'll need for this task.

However the install.sh script doesn't quite work correctly.

After cloning, use the following:

if [ -d "/usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0" ]
then
  sudo cp clojure.lang /usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs/clojure.lang
fi

if [ -d "/usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0" ]
then
  sudo cp clojure.lang /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/clojure.lang
fi

sudo cp clojure.xml /usr/share/mime/packages/clojure.xml
cd /usr/share/
sudo update-mime-database mime
