Perhaps the install plugin should accept a flag to ignore if already installed.

<br>I know that the shell throws errors on failure, but I&#39;m not sure there&#39;s really a good way to test for that in a FSH script without using a try-catch block somehow. (Try catch would probably work, though I&#39;m not exactly sure what the syntax would look like (it depends on your script to some extent.))<br>

Any idea how this could be done? I could do a forge list-plugins --all and iterate over that list (I think), but there should be a better way. Any suggestions?<span><font color="#888888"><br clear="all"><div>
