Usage

To auto-generate¹ the README.md file, you can run

    ./createReadme.py > README.md

If you are using git, you can install this script as a pre-commit git hook so that it is autogenerated on each commit. Use the following command:

    cd .git/hooks/ && ln -s ../../createReadme.py pre-commit && cd -
