Install Go using asdf for Visual Studio Code on macOS

I had a lot of issues trying to install Golang on macOS using asdf package manager to develop on Visual Studio Code.

So here's the steps needed to setup it properly:

Open Terminal and install asdf with this command:

You have to install Homebrew before running the installation command.

#!/usr/bin/ruby
=begin
Usage: rtftomarkdown.rb FILENAME.rtf

Uses textutil, available on Mac only (installed by default)
Outputs to STDOUT

Notes:

Links are replaced with Markdown references (duplicate links combined).

crcastle

#!/bin/bash

brew_command=/usr/local/bin/brew
brew_cask_command="$brew_command cask"

echo '#!/bin/bash'
echo ''
echo 'trap ctrl_c INT'
echo 'function ctrl_c() {'
echo 'echo "** Trapped CTRL-C"'

Remove osxfuse if installed via homebrew:
> brew uninstall osxfuse

Install osxfuse binary and choose to install the MacFUSE compatibility layer:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/osxfuse/files/latest/download?source=files

Reboot (optional but recommended by osxfuse)

Install ntfs-3g via homebrew:
> brew update && brew install ntfs-3g

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style

SETTING UP A NEW SVN PROJECT

Create a new SVN "repo" (aka folder):
(NOTE: https is required for our new SVN, as well as --username)
# svn mkdir https://some/url/path/to/newRepo --username first.last

#!/bin/bash

# This script will open all files from a git diff or a git show in vim.

# My bash skills are a bit primitive so this can probably be done more intelligently

# Usage:
#   gitopen -- opens all added files that have changed since HEAD
#   gitopen diff HEAD -- these are the default parameters
#   gitopen diff master -- opens files that have changed from master
