/************************************************
A simple game of Pong.
Run `pong -h` for the available options.

Keyboard controls are:
j: paddle down
k: paddle up
p: pause
q: quit

On i686 you can build this with:
$ 8g pong.go && 8l pong.8

On x86_64, it's:
$ 6g pong.go && 6l pong.6

How do you add packages to go? I don't have rand or SDL in my gopath

How do you add packages to go? I don't have rand or SDL in my gopath

maybe you solved but I write this comment for other who start with go and don't know how to add packages, you have to add them with the command go get, usually you find the way to install a package in the repo's readme.
