+blabouncer - An IRC client written in C
+
+== Compiling ==
+
+To compile run "make".
+
+== Running ==
+
+To run from the current directory once compiled run "./blabouncer".
+
+== Configuration ==
+
+An example configuration file is provided named "blabouncer.conf".
+
+If you don't specify one using "-c /path/to/configuration/file" then the example configuration one will be created for you in $HOME/.blabouncer/ when starting.
+
+== SSL/TLS ==
+
+To use TLS for client connections, which is enabled by default in the example configuration file, you will need to provide both a certificate and a key file.
+One way of creating these is to use OpenSSL:
+
+# openssl genrsa 2048 > key.pem
+# openssl req -x509 -days 30 -new -key key.pem -out cert.pem
+
+But you can create them however you like, or disable client TLS (not recommended) using the "clienttls" configuration file option.
+
+Server TLS is also enabled by default in the example configuration file, and can be disabled (not recommended) using the "servertls" configuration file option.
