-## Usage
-This software currently supports outputting to the following formats:
-
-* svg
-* PNG
-* JPG
-* Bitmap
-
-or directly to the console, as kind of an *"ascii art"*.  
-after installing via `make install`, you can read more in the man page by calling `man qr`.
-### Options
-```
-  -f --format     output file format. can be one of "cli, png, svg, jpg, bmp"
-  -h --help       show this help
-  -i --input      take data from this argument instead of stdin
-  -o --output     output file name without extension
-  -s --size       desired output file size in pixels
-  -t --type       output QR code type. can be one of "small, medium, large"
-  -v --version    shows version info
-```
-
-### Examples
-```bash
-bash> qr -i "this is from parameter" -f png -s 512 -o my_qrcode_file
-
-bash> echo "this is from stdin" | qr -t small -f png -s 512 -o my_qrcode_file_with_low_ecc
-```
-
-## Installation
-You can just pick the newest version from the ["Releases" page][releases], or build the software yourself.
-
-### Building
-You will need:
-* cmake
-* make
-* a modern C++ compiler that supports `c++20`
-
-```bash
-# clone the repo
-bash ~/> git clone https://git.mike-ochmann.de/MassiveDynamic/qr.git
-# move into the repository
-bash ~/> cd qr
-# create the build directory and move into it
-bash ~/qr> mkdir build && cd build
-# run `cmake`
-bash ~/qr/build> cmake ..
-# make and install the software
-bash ~/qr/build> make install 
-```

-qr is a tool for generating QR codes from the commandline
+Usage:
-
-Usage: qr [OPTION]... --input "data to encapsulate"
-
-*Caveats*
-  With no `--input` parameter defined, read STDIN
-
-  In pixel based renderers (i.e. PNG), the output code may not be exactly
-  centered, as the amount of segment may not correspond to the specified
-  output size.
-
-Options:
     -f --format    output file format. can be one of "cli, png, svg, jpg, bmp"
     -h --help      show this help
     -i --input     take data from this argument instead of stdin
     -o --output    output file name without extension
     -s --size      desired output file size in pixels
     -t --type      output QR code type. can be one of "small, medium, large"
-  -v --version    shows version info
-
-Examples:
-  qr -i "this is from parameter" -f png -s 512 -o my_qrcode_file
-
-  echo "this is from stdin" | qr -t small -f png -s 512 -o my_qrcode_file_with_low_ecc
 	
-Copyright:
+In pixel based renderers (i.e. PNG), the output size may not be exactly as
-  (C) 2023, MikO <miko@massivedynamic.eu>
+specified but be the nearest multiple of the actual cell size for the QR code.
