Tooting my own horn: I explained a few examples of plumbing rules in this
post of mine (I posted it on reddit/r/plan9 a while ago)

http://www.mostlymaths.net/2013/04/just-as-mario-using-plan9-plumber.html

In the end, everything is written down in the various man pages describing
plumb and plumber, it just takes a while to figure out how to mix all the
pieces.
