Sorry, there's a lot to write, but it's on its way. :-) If you want to poke around, look in $GOPATH/src/v/cache. > > - Getting rid of GOPATH is nice.

Most users won't need to worry since it now defaults to $HOME/go, so no one has to set it. For now I decided to try having vgo install commands to $GOPATH/bin, since most people will already have it in their path and it is Go-specific. As with just about everything, it's subject to change if we discover problems, but it's been that way for, oh, 4 hours and it seems to be working OK so far. Of course, if $GOBIN is set, then that wins, as it always has. Best, Russ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
