/** 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.
