The command gow -e=${go,html} run . is used to execute a Go program using the Gow command-line tool.

Here is the breakdown of the command:

  • gow: Gow is a command-line tool used for managing Go projects and dependencies.
  • -e=${go,html}: This flag specifies the file extensions to look for when running the program. In this case, it is set to ${go,html} which means to look for files with either .go or .html extensions.
  • run: This is a command used to execute a Go program.
  • .: The dot represents the current directory. By specifying a dot, it tells Gow to run the program in the current directory.

Overall, this command is used to execute a Go program in the current directory, considering files with either .go or .html extensions.
