From c022e2e857ceca9914f0b6ff8d4d2f9e60a729cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hey Alexej Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2014 05:28:50 +0700 Subject: fix import of io/ioutil, run gofmt generated/downloaded file doesn't work with "go run". it's missing ioutil. ran gofmt which uses tabs (width=8) for formatting. longest line is 85 characters now. removed whitespace. --- go.html.markdown | 449 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------- 1 file changed, 225 insertions(+), 224 deletions(-) diff --git a/go.html.markdown b/go.html.markdown index 0ecc6120..a1be08af 100644 --- a/go.html.markdown +++ b/go.html.markdown @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ contributors: - ["Jesse Johnson", "https://github.com/holocronweaver"] - ["Quint Guvernator", "https://github.com/qguv"] - ["Jose Donizetti", "https://github.com/josedonizetti"] + - ["Alexej Friesen", "https://github.com/heyalexej"] --- Go was created out of the need to get work done.
