 ## Overview
 
 The [Markdown](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) markup language is
-designed to be easy to read, write, and work with. The language has succeeded,
-but its flexibility is both a benefit and a drawback. Many stylistic decisions
-are left to the author, so formatting can be inconsistent. Some constructs
-don't work well in all parsers and should be avoided.
+designed to be easy to read, write, and understand. It succeeds - and its
+flexibility is both a benefit and a drawback. Many styles are possible, so
+formatting can be inconsistent. Some constructs don't work well in all
+parsers and should be avoided.
 
 `markdownlint` is a [static analysis](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_program_analysis)
 tool for [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) and [io.js](https://iojs.org/) with a
-library of rules to enforce standards and correctness for Markdown files. It
-was inspired by - and heavily influenced by - Mark Harrison's [markdownlint
-for Ruby](https://github.com/mivok/markdownlint): the rules, rule
-documentation, and tests for `markdownlint` come directly from that project.

 ## Usage
 
-...
+Invoke `markdownlint` and use the `result` object's `toString` method:
 
 ```js
-...
+var markdownlint = require("../lib/markdownlint");
+
+var options = {
+  "files": [ "good.md", "bad.md" ]
+};
+
+markdownlint(options, function callback(err, result) {
+  if (!err) {
+    console.log(result.toString());
+  }
+});
+```
+
+Outputs:
+
+```text
+bad.md: 3: MD010 Hard tabs
+bad.md: 1: MD018 No space after hash on atx style header
+bad.md: 3: MD018 No space after hash on atx style header
+```
+
+Or examine the `result` object directly:
+
+```js
+markdownlint(options, function callback(err, result) {
+  if (!err) {
+    console.dir(result, { "colors": true });
+  }
+});
+```
+
+Outputs:
+
+```json
+{
+  'good.md': {},
+  'bad.md': {
+    MD010: [ 3 ],
+    MD018: [ 1, 3 ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Integration with the [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) build system is straightforward:
+
+```js
+var gulp = require("gulp");
+var through2 = require("through2");
+var markdownlint = require("../lib/markdownlint");
+
+gulp.task("markdownlint", function task() {
+  return gulp.src("*.md", { "read": false })
+    .pipe(through2.obj(function obj(file, enc, next) {
+      markdownlint(
+        { "files": [ file.relative ] },
+        function callback(err, result) {
+          var resultString = (result || "").toString();
+          if (resultString) {
+            console.log(resultString);
+          }
+          next(err, file);
+        });
+    }));
+});
+```
+
+Outputs:
+
+```text
+[00:00:00] Starting 'markdownlint'...
+bad.md: 3: MD010 Hard tabs
+bad.md: 1: MD018 No space after hash on atx style header
+bad.md: 3: MD018 No space after hash on atx style header
+[00:00:00] Finished 'markdownlint' after 10 ms
