@marblegravy,
It is assumed that when a user is using go get
, that the $PATH has been configured to include $GOBIN or $GOPATH, but I will make that clearer.
Also, precompiled binaries are a part of the release for this project on the releases page. They are produced with gox. They do not include windows builds, which may change at some point, and they should be placed inside any path included in $PATH such as /usr/local/bin/dvm or /usr/bin/dvm and they will require rights to execute.
I'll let you know once a PR is ready so you can have a look and provide feedback before a new release.
Ah OK, for Option 3, perhaps link through to the releases page from the readme then to make that clearer?
* Download the (pre-compiled binaries)[https://github.com/fubarhouse/dvm/releases].
* Copy to location in $PATH environment variable.
Please review the following when you can; 2.3.0 is released.

Merged!
I might do some more work to the readme before the next release - the framework and all the associated changes basically make the usage documentation superseded.
So the readme is all spick and span.
If you've nothing to add within the next week, I'll close this off.
I'm sure there are other improvements that can be made, but it's better now. Close away.

The installation instructions aren't clear for noob go users (like me) at the moment.
I'd suggest the instructions should be more specific:
Build a version of DVM:
go get -u github.com/fubarhouse/dvm/cmd/dvm
Ensure DVM is in the PATH so you can run the other statements:
export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin
Also - installation option 3 in the current readme says to download the precompiled binaries, but unless I'm looking in the wrong place, I can't see where the precompiled binaries can be downloaded from?
