## How to use
1. Download and install Conduit via the handy dandy [installer](https://github.com/Gargaj/Conduit/releases) - this will install a handler for the **conduit://** URL scheme
2. Optionally, run Conduit and use the options dialog to set the path where your demos will be downloaded - by default this will be the "Demos" folder in My Documents.
3. Install the browser plugins for [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/conduit-browser-addon/) or [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/conduit-browser-add-on/ljbnhnepadopkgbcbifogmfaaphhbpha)
4. Visit a page on [Pouet](http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=65342) or [Demozoo](https://demozoo.org/productions/136150/) and click the newly visible link to have the demo downloaded, unpacked and ran at your leisure.
