// e.g.
go help test

Building and Running
Environment
For me I have set up my PATH to include go and my GOROOT to be the parent directory of the src folder.
export PATH=/usr/local/go/bin:$PATH
cd blah1/blah2/src/..
export GOPATH=`pwd`
Run
Compiles and run a program without leaving artefacts.
go run src/cmds/hello/hello.go
Build
Compiles but does not run a program. Given the tree
This command will build the library but not produce anything.
go build hello
This command will build the binary and produce a binary
go build cmds/hello
Adding the -i forces the intermediate files to be created on disk in the pkg directory
go build -i cmds/hello
