DiscordGo MyToken Example

This example demonstrates how to utilize DiscordGo to login with an email and password then to print out the Authentication Token for that user's account.

Everytime this application is run a new authentication token is generated for your account. Logging you in via email and password then creating a new token is a cpu/mem expensive task for Discord. Because of that, it is highly recommended to avoid doing this very often. Please only use this once to get a token for your use and then always just your token.
