First, it removes the documentation section from all the README.md files
and instead puts a web-based godoc badge and link at the top with the
other badges. This is being done since the local godoc tool no longer
ships with Go by default, so the instructions no longer work without
first installing godoc. Due to this, pretty much everyone uses the
web-based godoc these days anyways. Anyone who has manually installed
godoc won't need instructions.
Second, it makes sure the ISC license badge is at the top with the other
badges and removes the textual reference in the overview section.
Third, it's modifies the Installation section to Installation and
Updating and adds a -u to the go get command since it works for both and
thus is simpler.
Finally, it replaces the badges with SVG versions from shields.io so
they are consistent.
This commit creates and an example test file for the baes58 package that
integrates nicely with Go's example tooling.
This allows the example output to be tested as a part of running the
normal Go tests to help ensure it doesn't get out of date with the code.
- Call out in README.md that this is modified base58 (it's not the same as
normal base58)
- Remove the blurb about test_coverage.txt since it is no longer needed
now that the repo now has coveralls integrated
- Rename base58_check[_test].go -> basecheck[_test].go. Since Go treats
_<ext> special in some cases like for tests and conditional OS and
architecture compilation, it's a good idea to avoid naming files with
them to ensure a new special meaning doesn't break builds in the future
