+#### Format
+
+Plugins can be loaded either by the command-line arguments `--plugin` or
+`--plugin-dir` or by the `plugins` directive. Each of these take either
+absolute paths or paths relative to the base directory.
+
+When using command-line arguments to load multiple plugins you must add
+one argument for each plugin to be loaded. It is recommended to place
+these command-line arguments directly in the `install` script.
+
+The `plugins` config directive is specified as an array of paths to load.
