+## description
+put `mommy` before any command you want to run and mommy displays a compliment if it succeeds and an encouraging message
+if it fails~
+
+alternatively, mommy will compliment you if you run `mommy -0`, and will encourage you if you run `mommy -1`~
+
+mommy will carefully read the following variables from `~/.config/mommy/config.sh` to give you the bestest messages~ ❤
+* `MOMMY_PET_NAME` is what mommy calls you~
+* `MOMMY_PRONOUN` is what mommy uses for themselves~
+* `MOMMY_ROLE` is how mommy calls themselves~
+* `MOMMY_SUFFIX` is how mommy will end all their messages~
+* `MOMMY_CAPITALIZE` is `0` if mommy should start her sentences in lowercase, `1` for uppercase, and anything else to
+  change nothing~
+* `MOMMY_COMPLIMENTS` is the compliment mommy should give you if you did a good job~
+* `MOMMY_COMPLIMENTS_EXTRA` is where you can add your own compliments without removing the default ones~
+* `MOMMY_ENCOURAGEMENTS` is the encouragement mommy should give you if you need help~
+* `MOMMY_ENCOURAGEMENTS_EXTRA` is where you can add your own encouragements without removing the default ones~
+
+all these options take a `/`-separated list, and mommy will select the one they feel like using whenever they talk
+to you~
+
+in custom compliments and encouragements, you can ask mommy to use variables `%%PET_NAME%%`, `%%PRONOUN%%`, and
+`%%ROLE%%`~
+be careful with trailing newlines because mommy doesn't remove those for you~
+
+for example, if the file `~/.config/mommy/config.sh` looks like
+```shell script
+MOMMY_PET_NAME="boy/pet/baby"
+MOMMY_PRONOUN="his/their"
+MOMMY_ROLE="daddy"
+MOMMY_SUFFIX="~/ :3/"
+MOMMY_COMPLIMENTS_EXTRA="great job little %%PET_NAME%%/%%ROLE%% is proud of you"
+MOMMY_ENCOURAGEMENTS_EXTRA="\
+%%ROLE%% is here for you\
+/%%ROLE%% will always love you\
+/%%ROLE%% is here if you want a hug"
+```
+then mommy might compliment you with any of
+* daddy loves his little baby~
+* great job little baby :3
+* daddy is proud of you
 
+and so on~
 
+## examples
+```shell
+$ mommy true
+good girl~
+```
 
+```shell
+$ mommy false
+mommy knows her little girl can do better~
+```
 
-mommy knows her little girl can do better~ ❤
+```shell
+$ false || mommy
+good girl~
+```
 
+```shell
+$ true && mommy
+mommy knows her little girl can do better~
 ```
 
-## Configuration
-Mommy will carefully read `~/.config/mommy/config.sh` to give you the bestest messages~ ❤
+```shell
+$ command1 | command2 | command 3 | command 4 || ./mommy -1 && ./mommy -0
+[if any command fails]
+mommy knows her little girl can do better~
+```
 
-* `MOMMY_LITTLE` is what mommy calls you~ (default: "girl")
-* `MOMMY_PRONOUNS` is what mommy uses for themselves~ (default: "her")
-* `MOMMY_ROLES` is what mommy's role will be~ (default: "mommy")
+```shell
+$ command1 | command2 | command 3 | command 4 || ./mommy -1 && ./mommy -0
+[if all commands succeed]
+good girl~
+```
 
-All these options can take a `/`-separated list, and mommy will select the one she feels like using whenever she talks to you~
+## installation
+download the [latest release](https://github.com/FWDekker/mommy/releases/latest) for your platform and install as usual~
 
-For example, if the file `~/.config/mommy/config.sh` looks like
+for example, on Debian-like systems (including Ubuntu), run
 ```shell
-MOMMY_LITTLE=boy/pet/baby
-MOMMY_PRONOUNS=his/their
-MOMMY_ROLES=daddy
+sudo apt install ./mommy-0.0.2.deb
 ```
-then mommy might say any of
-* `daddy loves his little baby~ ❤`
-* `daddy loves their little pet~ ❤`
-* `daddy loves their little boy~ ❤`
 
-## Development
-All you need to build your own mommy is `build-essential`, `rpm`, and `squashfs-tools`, and then you just run `build.sh`~
+and then run `mommy [your command]`~

+if you don't want a mommy but for example a daddy, run the following:
+```shell
+sudo ln -s /usr/bin/mommy /usr/bin/daddy
+sudo ln -s /usr/share/man/man1/mommy.1 /usr/share/man/man1/daddy.1
+```

+your daddy by running
+```shell
+sudo rm /usr/bin/daddy
+sudo rm /usr/share/man/man1/daddy.1
+```
+

+sudo apt install ./mommy-0.0.3.deb
 ```
-
 and then run `mommy [your command]`~
 
+to uninstall, just do `sudo apt remove mommy`~
+
 ## development
 to build your own mommy, just run `./build.sh`, and outputs appear in `dist/`~
