If you're an #emacs user who has been postponing structural editing, or just not gotten into it when trying paredit (or one of the million alternatives), try just using the built-in, prebound commands:
M-x forward-sexp (C-M-f)
M-x backward-sexp (C-M-b)
M-x kill-sexp (C-M-k)
M-x backward-kill-sexp (C-M-)
They're really unintrusive and makes for a natural way to get into structural editing, without disrupting your current workflow or having a high learning curve. They work for #clojure too :)
