I don't understand why people are thinking this is just a Windows thing. It runs everywhere!

this is what you get for typing the forbidden “GOOS=windows” enchantment

Haha true, I'm looking at the code now and you're right. That .exe was only made for @Constant I guess. He should learn how to execute that other binary ;)

1: maybe it was indeed only made for me, maybe. 2: maybe vnak exists because of me in the first place, maybe. 3: i have probably installed various linux distros a bazillion times on various systems, and every time i came to the conclusion i'd rather use the OS i only installed a hand full of times, mostly only once per system. Though Windows is getting terrible in a whole bunch of ways for a while now, it never gave me shit about python versions and allows me to play broodwar without any fuzz, so there is that.

It always narrows down to Starcraft, ok, fair enough.

I tried gnak, it works indeed! I didn't know of Guigui. I'm happy it exists and that the web is slowly losing, but I don't understand why all these newish GUI frameworks never bother to implement support for the Linux primary clipboard. I guess all immediate-mode frameworks end up being very ugly for some reason. There was another one in Go that I tried a while ago and it was sad, but I guess for "tools" like nak they're fine.

Ah, it looks like he’s already aware of the clipboard issue.

cross-platform is hard. Thanks for giving it a try anyway. You know, I don’t plan on maintaining gnak. It's just a proposal for you.
