This version just tells you what to do, rather
than trying to teach you how it all works.
Should be much better for newcomers.

- removed gratuitous empty lines that creeped into command line output
- changed comment color to a dark green so that links don't visually melt into them
- removed some TODOs
- updated doc.go

- fix/remove unnecessary links

Will help people find the rules by searching the spec by
having a comment saying "missing return";
"terminating statement" does not evoke the rule to the
uninitiated.

The rule is not concistently followed by gc.
It appears that gccgo is ignoring it. go/types
does not implement this rule. However, both
gccgo and now go/types can compile/type-check
the entire std library (and thus all the shift
expressions occuring in it) w/o errors. For
more details see the discussion in issue 4883.
Fixes#4880.

The only functional change is the new section
on terminating statements.
There is a minor syntax rewrite (not change)
of function declarations to make it easier to
refer to the notion of a function from all places
where it is used (function decls, method decls,
and function literals).
Includes some minor fixes/additions of missing links.
Based closely on Russ' proposal.
Fixes#65.

Replacement for CL 7370053 which attempted to make fallthrough's
syntactically a part of switch statements. Because they may be
labeled, fixing that CL completely would require too much spec
surgery.

This is documenting the status quo. The previous cleanup
added this language as an implementation restriction, but
at least for now it is really part of the language proper.

The gc compilers already behave this way. It was an explicit
decision during the very long constant design discussions,
