+Fountain Flow for Vim
+=====================
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Basic installation is typical. There is a plugin file, and a help file.
+
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ doc/
+ fountainflow.txt
+ plugin/
+ fountainflow.vim
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Template information is on board the plugin, so it is possible to convert files
+right away. However, for greater control, templates and a style sheet are
+including in a folder called 'flowfiles'.
+
+This and another folder named 'libreoffice' can go anywhere. But you are
+required to include the following line in your .vimrc (preference file) so
+that the plugin knows where to access the 'flowfiles'.
+
+ let g:flow_directory = '/full/path/to/flowfiles/'
+
+Don't forget that trailing slash!
+
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ flowfiles/
+ screenplayFooter.html
+ screenplayHeader.html
+ screenplayStyle.css
+ screenplayTitlePage.html
+
+ libreoffice/
+ fountain-template-NO-synopsis.odt
+ fountain-template-NO-synopsis.ott
+ fountain-template-w-synopsis.fountain
+ fountain-template-w-synopsis.odt
+ fountain-template-w-synopsis.ott
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There is a reason the 'libreoffice' folder contains normal files along with the
+templates, and a dummy FOUNTAIN file. An explanation for this, and more
+information on using the templates will be available at our blog:
