1 year ago Currently, there isn't a way to use it per se - There's no way to get a working install from what is here currently. We are still in the early development stages.
The goal of this project is to allow the simple installation of Forge 965 for 1.6.4, in the very way you showed an example of - a simple one-step process. To get to there, there's a lot of work that needs to be done, 3 stages in fact. As detailed in the README, they are:
Documentation & Information gathering Toolset creation Merge & Finalisation
Currently, we are on the first stage, Documentation & Information gathering, named "Milestone 1". From the README:
This stage will consist of finding and documenting all the issues currently present within Forge 965 and suggesting fixes to each issue. This includes files it fails to download, broken code, missing items and more. This is the most important step, as without documentation on what the issues are, we can't create tools to fix and repair it.
You are quite correct that there is no adequate information on how to get started. I'm working on the new documentation just now and I should be able to PR it in over the weekend. The first stage is very complex, probably more than the programming part will be, due to how badly broken 965 is. For that reason I don't think many if any will help me with it, so I'm trying to get it finished ASAP.
Of course, once the whole project is in the last stage, at that point there will be full documentation for everything. We're trying to develop it in such a way that even if things break, even a blind drunk monkey with a sledgehammer and a machine gun can fix it, to stop some other poor soul dedicating over half a year of their life to making it work again!

That is a very useful project but there is no tutorial about how to use it. We need a tutorial for this, for instance: "Unzip the file to your 1.6.4 #965 workspace and run install.bat".
