- Source:
go get github.com/gwoo/gx - Ubuntu:
bash < <(curl gist.github.com/gwoo/57c93572988116e47a3a/raw/install.sh) - Download: https://github.com/gwoo/gx/releases

Files are served through SSL, if a cert.pem and key.pem exist in the current working directory where gx is started.
To generate, use openssl
