You can start a GoServeIt server by typing 'gsi' in your terminal followed by the relevant flags:

• -p (Optional): Specifies the port on which the HTTP server will listen (defaults to 8080).
• -f (Required): Specifies the name of the file to serve (e.g., -f test.sh).
• -v (Optional): If set, it will dump request information for visibility.

gsi -p 9000 -f test.sh -v
