Run docker-openstudio in the local #4

I create docker and pull docker-openstudio (docker pull phylroy/docker-openstudio). However, I have no idea how to run the gui in my local computer. Is there instruction to do the work?

phylroy has submitted a pull request to make it possible to run the GUI. However, he expects you to have installed an X-Windows server on your local computer. In the pull request he suggests Xming Server, which is Windows native and Open Source. You'll need to figure out the details of using X-Windows on your local computer and any Docker specific networking issues.

If we are going to support running the GUI from these containers, then one should create a new container (e.g. docker-openstudio-gui) dependent on this container and document functionality there. This container is designed to run ruby scripts and openstudio CLI.
