This directory builds tools used by people working in the Go language. The source code for these tools lives in libgo/go/cmd, where it is copied from the master gofrontend repository. This directory contains only the configure/Makefile instructions required to build the tools. This directory builds two programs for general use: go and gofmt. It also builds one program for internal use by the go tool: cgo. For more information on these tools see the doc.go files in the relevant source code, which can also be seen hosted at golang.org: http://golang.org/cmd/go http://golang.org/cmd/gofmt http://golang.org/cmd/cgo
