A master thesis on ``brig`` [has been written](https://github.com/disorganizer/brig-thesis),

discontinue it after that thesis - actually we'd love to get paid for
developement! Care to throw money at us?

## Installation

```bash
$ go get github.com/disorganizer/brig/brig
```

That should just work if you previously [setup

on your computer, which will print it's help when invoked without any
arguments.
