The Go programming language
Go to file
Joe Poirier 984b4e381d misc/windows packager development intermediate check-in
The installer now: allows a user to select an alternative
install directory, it now adds a Go folder to the Programs
Menu, and it places two shortcuts on the user's desktop.
The Program Menu folder contains shortcuts to the uninstaller
and two batch files, go.bat and godoc.bat. The desktop
shortcuts also point to go.bat and godoc.bat.

go.bat sets the Go environment, including Path, and spawns a
Window's shell. godoc.bat starts the godoc server at
localhost:6060 then spawns a browser window pointing to the
document server.

Setting the environment temporarily and spawning a shell, via
go.bat, should be safer than messing with the system's environment
and it makes the user experience a bit more streamlined.

The packager does work in its current state but it still needs
some polishing. And yes, the plan is to add a dialogue to allow
the user to decline the desktop shortcuts.

This is the source code repository for the Go programming language.  

For documentation about how to install and use Go,
visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install.html in your web browser.

After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install.html.

Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed
under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README).  You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:

    export GOROOT=$HOME/go
    export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See doc/install.html for more details.
