## godef - find symbol information in Go source

Godef, given an expression or a location in a source file, prints the
location of the definition of the symbol referred to.

Known limitations:

- it does not understand about "." imports
- it does not deal well with definitions in tests.

Not written in Markdown, so it's shown here as plain text — view it formatted on GitHub.
