+This project uses git submodules for its plugins, but this is handled

-To get all the current plugins, every time you pull this YADR repo. 
+    git clone https://github.com/skwp/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
+
+    ~/.dotfiles/bin/yadr/yadr init-plugins

+NOTE: by default, YADR will not touch any of your files. You have to manually 
+activate each of its components, if you choose, by following the sections below.
+Eventually these will be automated.
+
+If you pull new changes, be sure to run this to init all the submodules:
+
+    yadr init-plugins

+After you install yadr shell aliases, you can use the *yip* alias to do the same.
 
 Setup for ZSH

+After a lifetime of bash, I am now using ZSH as my default shell because of its awesome globbing

+Migrating from bash to zsh is essentially pain free. The zshrc provided here

+While I am not going to support bash out of the box here, YADR _should_ work with bash if
