build

you need go >=1.15, available build tags:

• libcurl: build with the libcurl opener.
• fileonly: build with the local file opener only.
• nomd: build without the markdown interpreter (glamour).
• nohl: build without the syntax-highlighter.
• crappy: build with some crappy (but useful) openers/mutators (needs a recent go version).

for instance: go build --tags libcurl,crappy .
