Yes Brian, this the way it is done in the "How to write Go code" article,
and it indeed works. At least, when package
morestrings is imported in the hello module where it is part of. I did get
that to work, but... i wanted to take the next
step and import that package morestrings in a whole new module, let's call
it hello2. I can't get that to work without
actually creating a real repository and getting it from there. Or, i am now
finding out, after editing my .mod file to use
replace. I had hoped there would be a way to not have to manually edit the
.mod files. Go development used to be
so beautifully simple!
