+# julia plots on nixos fix
+
+script taken from https://gist.github.com/konfou/d12c0a26fc0d3b432dc9d23c86701fcb and modified to actually work
+
+first run `./2.jl` or any other julia program that adds the
+`Plots` package to fetch all the julia packages I presume
+
+after everything is fetched and you most likely get an error,
+go back to the root of the project and run `julia-fix-gksqt.sh`
+to generate a nix shell under `julia-fix-gksqt.nix` with the correct
+path to the gksqt binary under `~/.julia` (fuck julia for this)
+
+then enter that nix shell using `nix-shell julia-fix-gksqt.nix` at
+which point you should be able to run your julia program with no issues
