## Installation guide for users who are not familiar with golang
step 1: install go on your machine and setup the environment by following the instructions from the following link:
https://golang.org/doc/install
make sure you set up your $GOPATH
step 2: also you may need to install Mercurial by following the instructions below
http://mercurial.selenic.com/downloads
step 3: download, compile, and install the project by executing the following command
go get github.com/chrislusf/weed-fs/go/weed
once this is down, you should see the executable "weed" under $GOPATH/bin
