gopass: The Windows 32-bit and 64-bit binary don't seem to work out of the box
Steps to reproduce:
- Download the 64-bit, located here.
- Extract it to some directory.
- Add that directory to the PATH variable with the instructions located here.
- Open a new command window via Start --> Run -->
cmd
- Do a
go init
command.

C:\Users\Zamiell>gopass
Error: password-store is not initialized. Try 'gopass init'
C:\Users\Zamiell>gopass init
Error: exec: "": executable file not found in %PATH%
C:\Users\Zamiell>
These steps were performed on a Windows 10 OS. I also tried using the 32-bit binary, and I received the same error. Any tips?

As an aside, if a user stumbles upon this repository and they start reading the README.md file, it isn’t clear if
gopass
is simply a rewrite ofpass
in golang, or if it also adds new features.Can you add a bulleted list to the README.md file that lists the additional features that
gopass
provides overpass
? It might be best to put it directly below the quote from passwordstore.org.
