+# forge help
+
+This is some code to help new users compile the GO GUI plugins
+which can be rather difficult to figure out how to do.
+
+## Design Goals
+
+* automate the recovery and build process for GO plugins
+* handle input from STDIN when there is no GUI yet
+
+## Notes
+
+Try to make things easy.
