very happy to hear about the "go" command on the timeline. While I haven't really had much trouble building Makefile this has seemed one of the least elegant parts of development with Go

Checkout the usage for ./go so-far here: http://code.google.com/p/go/source/browse/src/cmd/go/script....

Makefile fussing was driving me insane with Go. I was trying to build with directory local packages to keep bits of code separated cleanly and it was a pain to get working.

I discovered http://code.google.com/p/go-gb/ and haven't looked back. It makes building Go code SO much nicer. If I just want to try something quick in Go I just make a directory, place my whatever.go file in it, type 'gb', and run my program.

I really hope they make this 'go' tool as easy as 'gb'.
