workon

workon is a simple tool designed to make it easy to start to work on a Go project.

workon will:

1. Start a new terminal with the specified path set to its working directory.
2. Open all the .go files in the specified path, including nested packages, in a new editor. The new editor will have its working directory set to the specified path.

Usage

workon -terminal -editor your.project.path

The terminal used will be determined from the -terminal flag.

The editor used will be determined from, in order:

1. the -editor flag
2. the VISUAL environment variable
3. the EDITOR environment variable

Limitations

Currently workon requires the terminal to be explicitly set with the -terminal flag, since the TERM environment variable is not usable.

TODO

If no terminal or editor is available, select a default one based on the OS.
