public interface Plugin

This is a marker interface used to mark plugins in a Jar file for retrieval by the Plugins class. In order for a class to be treated as a Plugin the following must be true: (1) The name of the class must end with "Plugin". (ie MedianCutFilterPlugin, DirectInput EnvrionmentPlugin) (2) The class must implement the Plugin interface. It can do so directly, through inheritence of either a superclass that implements this interface, or through the implementation of an interface that extends this interface.
