Thanks a lot for doing this project! I have been hoping for an open-source alternative for ST for a while.

As a side note, could you clarify the build section where it says we need to modify cgo.go? I'm not exactly sure what to do there. I'm using Ubuntu 13.10.




Haven't gotten this to run yet because my copy of Python does not meet the criteria he listed in the Readme (`Python 3 must be compiled without sigaltstack enabled.`)

However I got it to build on Arch Linux.

First of all: modifying `cgo.go` didn't work for me. Not sure why: but it's included to late in the build process, `abstract.go` bombs out on the compilation.

These flags worked for me just fine on Arch Linux: `// #cgo pkg-config: libffi python-3.3`

That's assuming you have `.pc` files for libffi and python on your system. (Which might not be the case if you're building it from scratch.)
