Max Rate Calculator mod for Factorio
==============================


Provides a selection tool (default hotkey is ctrl-n), which when used to select a set of machines, calculates the maximum
possible rate of items consumed and produced by those machines.   These rates are displayed in a GUI window on the left
side of the Factorio window, in items per second, and items per minute.
