How to use:

kspgmm setup [name] [path]

kspgmm set [name]

kspgmm remove [name]

kspgmm list

 

Instructions:

1. Download KSPGMM, extract the kspgmm binary, instances.json, and config.ini into a folder.

2. Configure config.ini. "Base" should be set to a 'base' folder, of which all instances will be based off of. See below for an example of a base folder. "KSPDir" should be the directory with KSP.exe and/or KSP_x64.exe in it.

3. Use it!

Clever!  I may migrate from GDS if this works like a charm.
