Delim

This is a small helper utility for building the latex document.

It is called by thesis.tex with the following newcommand:

\newcommand{\gofilerange}[4][]{%
    \immediate\write18{./utils/delim -file="#2" -start="#3" -end="#4"}
    \IfFileExists{code.lineno}
      {\CatchFileEdef{\linenumber}{./code.lineno}{\endlinechar=-1 }}
      {\def\linenumber{0}}
    \edef\flags{firstnumber=\linenumber,#1}
    \expandafter\gofile\expandafter[\flags]{./code.snippet}
}

Basically, delim receives the filename and a start- and end-comment. It then writes the files content between the two comments into code.snippet, and the starting line number into code.lineno.

These are then used by the minted package to display the code section within the document.

Use it in the document like so:

\gofilerange{this/file.go}{start-section}{end-section}
