Problem Statement

After talking with Tim Smith about Cookstyle 6.11/Workstation 20.7.96, the latest Rubocop has been pulled in, which has a newer method of defining the autocorrect pieces of Cookstyle rules. We need to update this, so we have rule-writing instructions for both.

Additional Notes

This should have a new section appended to ensure we maintain historical instructions should the need arise.

[scottvidmar]

The rubocop changes to matchers and autocorrect has changed some behaviors that are causing me some grief. Luckily, it looks like the old style still works for the time being.

Figured out the new style. Forming this up into markdown, and following same format as before to illustrate basics.
