Gort Installation

On startup Gort creates it's "home" directory. The location of that directory varies by platform:

• Windows: The "gort" folder in $env(APPUSERDATA)
• MacosX: The ~/Library/Application Support/gort folder
• Everything Else: The ~/.gort folder

Inside of its home directory gort creates the following file structure:

• download - A path to download source files and teapots
• sandbox - A path to unpack and build projects
• bin - A path to install commands
• lib - A path to install re-usable library code
