 ===
 
 The purpose of this utility is to pretty-print JSON in the human-readable YAML object notation
-(ignore the misnomer, it's not a markup language at all)
+(ignore the misnomer, YAML is not a Markup Language at all).
 
-You see, JSON is a proper subset of YAML, The difference is that YAML can use whitespace instead of syntax, which is more human-readable.
-Also, YAML supports comments.
+Installation
+===
 
-So, for all the times you want to turn JSON int YAML (YML):
+```bash
+npm install -g json2yaml

 Specify a file:

+json2yaml ./example.json > ./example.yml

+*Note*: In fact, both of those Object Notations qualify as YAML
+because JSON technically *is* a proper subset of YAML.
+That is to say that all proper YAML parsers parse proper JSON.
+
+YAML can use either *whitespace and dashes* or *brackets and commas*.
+
+For human readability, the whitespace-based YAML is preferrable.
+For compression and computer readability, the syntax-based YAML is preferrable.
