+Here is a complete list of dependencies needed for making these themes work.
 If you install all of them you will have a (mostly) smooth out of the box experience.
 Of course, not all of them actually do something useful (see `fortune-mod` dependency).
-Also if you are willing to edit a few configuration files, **which you will have to do** at some point, most of these dependencies can be replaced. For example you can replace `i3lock` with your own command, `rofi` with `dmenu`, my `screenshot.sh` script with `scrot`.

 ## Things to do after you set up dependencies
 + Backup your current `~/.config/awesome` directory if you have one and copy this repo's `config/awesome` directory in its place.
 
-+ Configure default applications
++ Configure user preferences
 
-   In `rc.lua` there is a section where default applications such as terminal, editor and file manager are defined.
+   In `rc.lua` there is a *User variables and preferences* section where user preferences and default applications are defined. There include the terminal, editor, file manager, screenshot directory, weather widget configuration and more.
    You should change those to your liking.
 
 + Configure autostart applications in `autostart.sh`
 
+   The commands in `autostart.sh` will run every time AwesomeWM restarts. If you would like to run something only once on login, I suggest you create the file `~/.xprofile`, make it executable and put the commands you want there.
+
 + *(Optional)* Load any `Xresources` colorscheme (`xrdb -merge <colorscheme file>`). In the [.xfiles](.xfiles) directory I provide you with a few of my own colorschemes, but you can also use your favorite one. All of my AwesomeWM themes take their colors from `xrdb`.
 
 + Have a general idea of what my keybinds do
 
    My keybinds will most probably not suit you, but on your first login you might need to know how to navigate the desktop.

++ The `evil` directory contains daemons (processes that run in the background) which emit system info.

+   They provide an easy way of writing widgets that rely on external information. All you need to do is subscribe to the signal a daemon provides.
+   No need to remember which shell command gives you the necessary info or bother about killing orphan processes. Evil takes care of everything.
 
 + In `themes` you can find a directory for each available theme.
 
    Such a directory should include at least a `theme.lua` and optionally icons, wallpaper, and whatever asset you need that is theme-specific.
