/*
A plugin for the Google protocol buffer compiler to generate Go code.
Run it by building this program and putting it in your path with the name
protoc-gen-go
That word 'go' at the end becomes part of the option string set for the
protocol compiler, so once the protocol compiler (protoc) is installed
you can run
protoc --go_out=output_directory input_directory/file.proto
to generate Go bindings for the protocol defined by file.proto.
With that input, the output will be written to
output_directory/file.pb.go
The generated code is documented in the package comment for
the library.
See the README and documentation for protocol buffers to learn more:
