Then choose "Advanced system settings", "Environment Variables..", click "New" on "user variables" panel.
Set the "GOPATH" to "%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Documents\go" or anywhere else for your main go directory, something like this:
Click "OK" on all dialog, next, just open a "Command Prompt" window and create required directory, type
go version
:: go version go1.5 windows/amd64
mkdir Documents\go\src
:: creating a directory, only required for the first time
cd Documents\go\src
:: change directory to %GOPATH%\src
notepad hello.go
:: edit a new source code
Create a new source code and type something like this:
package main
import `fmt`
func main() {
fmt.Println( `Hello from Indonesia~ 1+1 =`, 1+1 )
}
Save, then go back to command prompt, type:
go run hello.go
A line will printed, and that's how you could install and run a example go program.
