mv slack*amd64 slack

# Add execute permissions to binary (for *nix Oss)
chmod +x slack

# just run it

Building from source

Get the repo

git clone https://github.com/peteretelej/tools.git
cd tools

To build a specific tool, cd into it's directory and build it:

cd slack
go build

• This builds a binary (slack or slack.exe depending on OS) that you can use directly. It has no dependencies, so you can copy it elsewhere and use as desired (eg /usr/local/bin)
