-You can use the `AddRuntimeFile(name, type, path string)` function to add various kinds of
-files to your plugin. For example, if you'd like to add a help topic to your plugin
-called `test`, you would create a `test.md` file, and call the function:
+Simply import the package you'd like and then you can use it. For example:
+
+```lua
+local ioutil = import("io/ioutil")
+local fmt = import("fmt")
+
+local data, err = ioutil.ReadFile("SomeFile.txt")
+
+if err ~= nil then
+ messenger:Error("Error reading file: SomeFile.txt")
+else
+ -- Data is returned as an array of bytes
+ -- Using Sprintf will convert it to a string
+ local str = fmt.Sprintf("%s", data)
+
+ -- Do something with the file you just read!
+ -- ...
+end
+```
+
+Here are the packages from the Go standard library that you can access.
+Nearly all functions from these packages are supported. For an exact
+list of which functions are supported you can look through `lua.go`
+(which should be easy to understand).
+
+```
+fmt
+io
+io/ioutil
+net
+math
+math/rand
+os
+runtime
+path
+filepath
+strings
+regexp
+errors
+time
+```
+
+For documentation for each of these functions, you can simply look
+through the Go standard library documentation.
