+# py-mklink-wrapper
 
-Wrapper script for ln.exe to make it look and act like mklink.exe
+A wrapper script for `ln.exe` to make it look like the `MKLINK` utility
+found from Windows Vista onwards. `ln.exe` allows Windows XP to use
+symbolic links. More recent versions of Windows come with the MKLINK
+utility which can do the same.
+
+To fully utilise this, you should also have a batch script that
+should look something like this:
+
+```
+@ECHO OFF
+python %~dp0mklink.py %*
+```
+
+Name the file `mklink.cmd` and put it in `PATH`. Now you can use the
+fake mklink utility like you would use the real.
+
+You can find instruction for installing ln.exe from
