+## Install
+
+Symlink the script and menu entry into your home directory, so later updates of the repo apply without reinstalling (`~/bin` must be on `PATH`):
+
+ ln -s "$PWD/upscale-qt" ~/bin/upscale-qt
+ ln -s "$PWD/upscale-qt.desktop" ~/.local/share/applications/upscale-qt.desktop
+ update-desktop-database ~/.local/share/applications
+
+The menu entry uses the `zoom-in` icon from your icon theme and registers for common image types, so "Open with" works from a file manager. To uninstall, remove the two symlinks.
+
## Usage
./upscale-qt [image]
