Jumplist database

This program consists of two files, main.go, and kv.go, listed below.

It is used to manage the database of jump locations, and is intended to be called by a series of batch scripts

It’s currently done in a naive way, so as to preserve insertion order, and to keep from having to attach to something like SQLite. Even if the jumplist gets up to 100 elements, this code will remain quick, and it preserves order, and avoid a dependency on anything that Go doesn’t ship with.

You’ll want to drop these two files into a folder, run go build -o jumplist.exe on them, and then take jumplist.exe and copy it to a directory on your path.
