-zea is a minimalistic web browser using Gtk2 and WebKit. "Zeig's einfach
-an" is german and translates roughly to "just show it" (the damn web
-page).

-Using zea with tabbed
-====================
+Background information
+----------------------
 
-The order of arguments for zea doesn't matter. This means you can run it
-like this:
+What chorizo is and what it's not
 
-	$ tabbed -c ./zea file:///home/hans/bookmarks.html -z 0.8 -e
+  chorizo does what I need. It won't do other things. I'm open for
+  contributions but please don't be upset if I turn them down -- which
+  might happen if it's a feature that I simply don't need.
 
-Each new tab will then show your bookmarks and is scaled by a factor of
-0.8.
+  chorizo does not compete with powerful browsers like dwb or luakit, nor
+  with monstrous applications like Firefox or Chromium. Because under
+  the hood chorizo is powered by WebKit, however, it is on par with
+  browsers like Safari for page rendering features.
 
+How is chorizo related to lariza?
 
-Literature
-==========
+  chorizo is a fork of the lariza browser by Peter Hofmann. I wanted
+  to take it in a slightly different direction (mostly just adding
+  features not considered to be in the spirit of lariza), so I forked
+  it. The name was changed in order to reduce confusion between the
+  two browsers as they grew apart. The versioning scheme was also
+  changed from being calendar-based to following the semantic
+  versioning scheme.
