+Installation
+============
+The basic installation's standard:
+
+make install
+
+----------------------------------
+
+Autostarting
+------------
+`make install` will copy a .desktop file over to /etc/xdg/autostart, meaning that all xdg-compliant window managers should start it automatically when you log in.
+As far as I am aware, they start trayfreq as root, thus it is fully able to change the governor.
+
+Personally, I use a non-xdg-compliant WM (dwm) so trayfreq needs to be run with sudo in my xinitrc.
+To avoid having to enter my password each time the xinitrc is run, I added this rule to my `/etc/sudoers`:
+
+ # ... (/etc/sudoers
+ david ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/trayfreq
+ # ...
+
+Simple.
