compileAndGo is two things: a #! program to wrap compiled-language source code such as Java and C++ into a script, and a shell command to compile and run source code in one step, like this: cg foo.java.

It caches the executable file or files out of sight and does make-like automatic recompilation. Wrapping source code in #!compileAndGo combines the convenience of a script-like executable source file with the benefits of a compiled language. Currently works with .c, .java, .cp and other C++ filename extensions. Any other language you'd like supported?

What's New:
The commandName parameter is now optional.
CLASSPATH for Java can be specified.
Bug fixes
Shell commands for listxattr, getxattr, setxattr, removexattr.
Bundles latest JNIDirect beta.
