@server8889xxx
Welcome to the free Golang based http server running on port 8889 on your localhost!

!!! Disclaimer !!! Use at your own risk! You are responsible for whatever you do with it or how you use it!

I had the .7z compressed archive file scanned for your peace of mind @ VirusTotal.com, and it checked out OK: it has only one false positive with Jiangmin as of the version date (month day) posted on bottom of this page. You can see the results by clicking here. You can always recheck it, certainly.

- Download the Go based free HTTP Server for Windows and Linux. It was tested on Linux and Windows. If you use a Mac and would like to have a Mac version, please write me, and I will sell you a copy, thank you.

- Download the SHA256 signature for the .7z archive file.

1. The http server works on Windows and Linux. The code both for Windows and Linux was compiled on an Ubuntu 64-bit machine using Golang 1.8. For Windows it was cross compiled using "export GOOS=windows GOARCH=386", that is it is a 32-bit program. For Linux it was compiled using "export GOOS=linux GOARCH=386", that is it is also a 32-bit file.

2. The file can be uncompressed using the 7z file archiver. On Ubuntu it is already installed, and it can be accessed using: 7z e archivexxx. For Windows it can be downloaded here.
