My adventures in go; a small collection of disk utilities

This started out as a teach-myself-go exercise but seems to be evolving into something useful so I decided to share on github.

It's under heavy development and has had limited testing so no responsibility taken if your cat spontaneously combusts when you run this software

Assuming you have Go already installed and set up, simply run:

go get github.com/SeeSpotRun/go-disk-utils
go get github.com/SeeSpotRun/go-fibmap

You will also need to install some dependencies:

go get github.com/docopt/docopt-go

A package for governing file reads from an hdd to try to optimise performance.

A utility which uses hddreader and walk to do (hopefully) high-speed checksum calculations

sum is a demo main for the hddreader package. Various optimisations can be tuned or turned off.
