Generate is given a list of *.go files to parse, and an output file (fout),
codecgen will create an output file __file.go__ which
contains `codec.Selfer` implementations for the named types found
in the files parsed.
Using codecgen is very straightforward.
**Download and install the tool**
`go get -u github.com/ugorji/go/codec/codecgen`

The command line format is:
`codecgen [options] (-o outfile) (infile ...)`
```sh
% codecgen -?
Usage of codecgen:
-c="github.com/ugorji/go/codec": codec path
-o="": out file
-r=".*": regex for type name to match
-rt="": tags for go run
-t="": build tag to put in file
-u=false: Use unsafe, e.g. to avoid unnecessary allocation on []byte->string
-x=false: keep temp file
% codecgen -o values_codecgen.go values.go values2.go moretypedefs.go
```
