might make life easier than curl..

kevincobain2000 commented 11 months ago

Yea. I wanted to do that. And got lost in documentation whenever I started to do it. Sometime soon, I need motivation.

gedw99 commented 11 months ago

sure I know what you mean ... Only so much time in the day !!

I guess wait to see if anyone else wants it by voting on this issue. I can live without it.

Maybe do a chocolate for Windows people too.

Yea, one think about home brew I dislike is it takes longer to finish all updates. Curl is sweet and simple. anyways let’s see if someone else lands on this issue In future.

I think the main problem we will face here is the location of the binary file. Gobrew is located in a separate directory in the home space. While brew places all binary files in one common directory in which links are created.

I haven't figured out how to solve this problem yet. If only to untie from the current location. And remove the possibility of updating from the program itself?

Good point. Thanks. And I think curl will always be the fastest way to install this binary, homebrew often has long long update times.
