  Nothing says "easily maintainable" like a 298,000 line go file. Gitlab is struggling to render it for me.

    Can't lose context if you never leave the file.

      Can't have context if the file never loads.

        Sounds like you need a better editor :) But seriously, I would expect most editors to handle large files relatively gracefully, even if they aren’t as fast as vim for example. Browser based code viewers on the other hand, I grant you, aren’t generally up to the task.

    This is of course generated code (output from the C to Go converter), so to "easily maintain" it, you'd edit the Tcl C source files and re-generate these. The generated Go code is committed to the repo so the person using the library doesn't need the C-to-Go converter tools.

    That is just a compilation artifact, though. He only commits it for online importing.
