Google Go (golang) as CGI

The following steps should get you serving content rendered by Google Go through Apache and cgi. This is probably painfully obvious to anyone who has done cgi before, but as I have always worked with higher level stuff, this actually took a little figurin' out.
 
(I'll take a stab at fcgi next...)
 
1) Create plain.go
 

package main

import (
  "os"
)

func main() {
  os.Stdout.WriteString("Content-Type: text/plain;charset=us-ascii\n\n");
  os.Stdout.WriteString("Hello world!\n\n");
}

 
2) Compile and link it
 
8g plain.go
8l -o plain.cgi plain.8
 
3) Setup your .htaccess file
 
 
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
 
 
That should be all there is to it.  You can test the .cgi file by simply running it from the command line as well.  Other information that might be useful is that the query string will be in an environment variable called "QUERY_STRING", and POST data will be on stdin.
