System requirements
-------------------
Prebuilt binaries Currently prebuilt binaries are provided only for 64 bit OS X and Linux.
----------------- The install script will fall back to the legacy Ruby version on the other
systems, but if you have Go installed, you can try building it yourself.
(`make install`)
- Darwin x86_64 However, as pointed out in [golang.org/doc/install][req], the Go version will
