Hi shockneck
Thank you for your answer,
I just want to search files (any type) quickly. I know that the same can be achieved with find and different arguments, but I prefer to use locate on Linux because is quicker.
If this isn't achieved on AIX I should stick on find.
Thanks,
Enid

go-get
GO-GET(1) General Commands Manual GO-GET(1)
NAME
go - tool for managing Go source code
SYNOPSIS
go get [-a] [-d] [-fix] [-n] [-p n] [-u] [-v] [-x] [ packages ]
DESCRIPTION
Get downloads and installs the packages named by the import paths, along with their dependencies.
When checking out or updating a package, get looks for a branch or tag that matches the locally installed version of Go. The most important
rule is that if the local installation is running version "go1", get searches for a branch or tag named "go1". If no such version exists it
retrieves the most recent version of the package.
OPTIONS
-a, -n, -v, -x, -p
The -a, -n, -v, -x, and -p flags have the same meaning as in 'go build' and 'go install'. See go-build(1).
-d The -d flag instructs get to stop after downloading the packages; that is, it instructs get not to install the packages.
-fix The -fix flag instructs get to run the fix tool on the downloaded packages before resolving dependencies or building the code.
-u The -u flag instructs get to use the network to update the named packages and their dependencies. By default, get uses the network
to check out missing packages but does not use it to look for updates to existing packages.
For more about specifying packages, see go-packages(7).
For more about how 'go get' finds source code to download, see go-remote(7).
