+=========
+Munter.py
+=========
+
+Helps you speed up your tour and trip planning.
+
+Disclaimer
+==========
+
+The time calculations produced by this program are not guaranteed to be
+accurate. Any harm or hazard encountered due to blindly trusting these
+estimates is your own fault.
+
+Installation
+============
+
+There is no installation and there are no dependencies external to the Python
+standard library.
+
+How to use it
+=============
+
+./munter.py --help
+
+My workflow involves planning my tour using tools like ArcGIS or CalTopo. Then,
+I take the stats between each leg (distance, vertical gain/loss) of the tour
+and run them through Munter.py and thence record its output to my field
+notebook.
+
+The rudimentary "GUI" can be directly transferred to e.g. the format used by
+SnowPit Technologies' "Avalanche Field Notebook" or your own personal format
+(e.g. RitR No. 471).
+
+Future plans
+============
+
+* Personal "fitness" switch (to help fine tune your estimates based on
+							 your personal fitness level as observed
+							 over time)
+* GTK mode
+* Use as a Python library from within another project
+* Lint it (e.g. therapist)
+* Pip?
