support Apple Silicon (M1)

Thanks for reporting.

I don't have an M1 to test on, unfortunately.

Does it work with the latest version of the Go compiler, version 1.18?

I'm on an M1 and I just installed go using brew

When I run go install github.com/xyproto/png2svg/cmd/png2svg@latest

I get

go: downloading github.com/xyproto/png2svg v1.5.2
go: downloading github.com/xyproto/tinysvg v1.0.1

Is it supposed to say more than this? It doesn't seem to have installed it. It's certainly not in my path and I can't run it. Maybe I need to add go to my path first?

Got it to work.. it was just a path issue. Here are the full steps I did

mkdir -p $HOME/go/{bin,src,pkg}

# add the following 3 lines to your .bashrc / .zshrc
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export GOROOT="$(brew --prefix golang)/libexec"
export PATH="$PATH:${GOPATH}/bin:${GOROOT}/bin"

# install go
brew install golang

#install png2svg
go install github.com/xyproto/png2svg/cmd/png2svg@latest

Open a new tab, or source your .bashrc/.zshrc

Then png2svg will work

Thanks for testing.

Yes, it's part of the setup of the Go compiler on macOS/Homebrew. On Linux, none of the above is needed.

Oh, and GOPATH is ~/go by default, so there should be no need to set it to $HOME/go.

I'll consider adding a note about macOS/Homebrew to the README, even though it's not specific to this project.

I'm glad it's working on M1!
