fileserver.go

// Good for a no nonsense file sharing across a network.
// This is an implementation of the similar functionality you get by doing `python -m SimpleHTTPServer`
// To use this you must compile this with a go compiler and pass the desired path to directory(to be hosted) as CLI arguments.
