    • Walk, Used to make a proper window'd GUI, used in V2

  DISCLAIMER

  • This tool was made to help me personally, i highly reccomend downloading and tweaking the tool to suit your needs. only tested on windows. it is in no way meant to to be used in production.

  • This utility makes compiling some exe programs easier, especially when embedding a icon. Default Golang icon comes with the source because i needed a icon to test it. Also lets you test it yourself!

  • USAGE!

    • Just go into the root of your project, make sure there is a manifest.xml file, and run compile
    • OR! if you want to compile a specific go file. compile main.go

  • DEPENDANCIES

    • rsrc, used as the core of this entire program

  • How to install!

    • go get github.com/Merith-TK/Personal-Projects/compile
    • go get github.com/akavel/rsrc

  • How to test?

    • This program is only validated to work on windows 7 and windows 10. How you can check to see if this program works. go to your GOPATH/bin folder and look for compile.exe, it should have a go-gopher icon. This is how you test this program because i bundled the syso file, which was BUILT by this program. crazy i know. it was built by using go run on compile.go

    FUN FACT! I actually built the binary of this program as i was making it due to how it behaves!
