Why are you editing that file? As the directory names imply
that is just a template for creating new plugins.

You need to edit the forrest.properties in your own site's space. 
e.g.
mkdir new-directory
cd new-diectory
forrest seed
edit forrest.properties

Above you seem to imply that you are having troubles
with the 0.7 release's Forrest documentation. In this case
you need to edit your $FORREST_HOME/site-author/forrest.properties
