The implied suggestion from the Golded scripts was to use the golded script to
launch Golded. But upon examining the script file it became evident that it
dealt with ".ru" Russian locales. Hence my decision to try to launch Golded
manually. After first downloading the Golded+ source I had setup a basic
golded.cfg file to use in running Golded. At first using the source obtained
from the gpsrc-115-20161221.tgz. Running ./gedlnx (With golded.cfg in the same
directory as gedlnx) left me right back at the command prompt. 

After obtaining the golded+ source from the gpl115-20161221.zip which was
created from running the dist-gpl.sh script and compiling Golded+. Loading
gedlnx (Again with golded.cfg in the same directory as gedlnx caused Golded+ to
load ok. This is without specifying a golded config file on the commandline.

I will write a small bash file to load Golded in the future and also complicate
the config file more to meet my particular needs.
