-Mintty as a terminal for Bash on Ubuntu on Windows / WSL.
+Mintty as a terminal for WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).
+
+<img align=right src=wsltty.png>
 
 ### Overview ###
 
-Run the [installer](https://github.com/mintty/wsltty/releases) to install
-* wsltty package components (see below) in the user’s application directory (where WSL is also installed)
-* an empty wsltty “home directory” to enable storage of a mintty config file
-* a Desktop Shortcut and a Start Menu Shortcut to start WSL with a login bash in the *Windows user profile* directory; to start in the Linux home directory instead, add a `cd` command to your Linux `$HOME/.profile` script
-* context menu entries for Windows Explorer to start WSL with a bash in the respective directory
-* a script `wsl.bat` to invoke wsltty manually; copy the script from `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty` to `%SYSTEMROOT%\System32` if desired
+WSLtty components
+* wsltty package components (see below) in the user’s local application folder 
+  `%LOCALAPPDATA%`
+* a wsltty configuration directory in the user’s application folder `%APPDATA%`
+  (“home”-located configuration files from a previously installed version 
+  will be migrated to the new default location)
+* Start Menu shortcuts to start a WSL shell (with some variations, see below)
+* `*.bat` scripts to invoke WSL from the command line (see below)
+* optional context menu entries for Windows Explorer to start a WSL shell in the respective folder
+* install/uninstall context menu items from Start Menu subfolder `WSLtty`
 * an uninstall script that can be invoked manually to remove shortcuts and context menu entries
 
+### Installation ###
+
+#### WSLtty installer ####
+
+Run the [installer](https://github.com/mintty/wsltty/releases) to install 
+the components listed above.
+If Windows complains with a “Windows protected your PC” popup, 
+you may need to click “Run anyway” to proceed with the installation.
+You may need to open the Properties of the installer first, tab “General” 
+section “Security” (if available) and select “Unblock”, 
+to enable the “Run anyway” button.
+
+#### Installation from source repository ####
+
+Download or checkout the wsltty repository.
+Invoke `make`, then `make install`.
+Note this has to be done within a Cygwin environment.
+
+#### Installation to non-default locations ####
+
+(For experts)
+Within the installation process, provide parameters to the script `install.bat`.
+The optional first parameter designates the installation target,
+the optional second parameter designates the configuration directory.
+
+### Invocation ###
+
+WSLtty can be invoked with
+* installed Start Menu shortcuts (or Desktop shortcuts if copied there)
+* *.bat scripts
+* Explorer context menu (if installed from the Start Menu `WSLtty` subfolder)
+
+Starting the mintty terminal directly from the WSLtty installation location 
+is discouraged because that would bypass some essential options.
+
 ### Configuration ###
 
-#### Command line script wsl.bat ####
+#### Command line scripts `wsl*.bat` ####
 
-* To enable invocation of this script from WIN+R or from cmd.exe, 
-  copy it from `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty` into `%SYSTEMROOT%\System32`.
-  (The package does not do this to avoid trouble with missing admin privileges.)
-* To start the terminal in the current directory when calling the script from the command line,
-  modify it (or a copy for this purpose) and remove the final `-l` parameter.
-* To enforce starting in your Linux home directory, do *either* of:
-  * On Linux side, add a `cd` command to your `$HOME/.profile`.
-  * In the script (or a copy for this purpose), add `-C~` as first parameter of `wslbridge`: `... /bin/wslbridge -C~ -t /bin/bash -l`.
+WSLtty installs the following scripts into `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps` 
+(and a copy in its application folder `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty`):
 
-#### Desktop shortcut and Start menu shortcut ####
+* For each installed WSL distribution D, D`.bat` to start in the current folder/directory
+* For each installed WSL distribution D, D`~.bat` to start in the WSL user home
+* `wsl.bat` to start the default WSL installation in the current folder/directory
+* `wsl~.bat` to start the default WSL installation in the WSL user home
+* `wsl-l.bat` to start the default WSL installation with a login shell
 
-To enforce starting in your Linux home directory, do *either* of:
-* On Linux side, add a `cd` command to your `$HOME/.profile`.
-* Open Shortcut Properties; in the Target, add `-C~` as first parameter of `wslbridge`: `... /bin/wslbridge -C~ -t /bin/bash -l`.
+Given that `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps` is in your PATH,
+the scripts can be invoked from cmd.exe, PowerShell, or via WIN+R.
+
+#### Start Menu and Desktop shortcuts ####
+
+In the Start Menu, the following shortcuts are installed:
+* For each installed WSL distribution D, D` in Mintty` to start in the WSL user home
+
+In the Start Menu subfolder WSLtty, the following shortcuts are installed:
+* For each installed WSL distribution D, D` in Mintty` to start in the Windows %USERPROFILE% home
+* For each installed WSL distribution D, D` ~ in Mintty` to start in the WSL user home
+* `WSL % in Mintty` to start the default WSL installation in the Windows %USERPROFILE% home
+* `WSL ~ in Mintty` to start the default WSL installation in the WSL user home
+* `WSL -l in Mintty` to start the default WSL installation with a login shell
+
+WSLtty does not install Desktop shortcuts. If you want them, copy the 
+desired ones from the Start Menu subfolder `WSLtty`.
+
+To ensure a login shell to start in your Linux home directory, 
+add a `cd` command to your `$HOME/.profile` on Linux side.
+
+#### Context menu entries ####
+
+WSLtty provides context menu entries for all installed WSL distributions,
+to start a respective WSL shell in a specific folder from an Explorer window. 
+They are not installed by default.
+To add or remove context menu entries, run the respective script from the 
+Start Menu subfolder `WSLtty`.
+
+#### Mintty settings ####
+
+Mintty can maintain its configuration file in various locations, 
+with the following precedence:
+* file given with mintty option `-c` (not used by wsltty default installation)
+* file `config` in directory given with mintty option `--configdir`
+  * This is `%APPDATA%\wsltty\config` in the default wsltty installation.
+* `%HOME%\.minttyrc` (usage deprecated with wsltty)
+* `%HOME%\.config\mintty\config` (usage deprecated with wsltty)
+* `%APPDATA%\mintty\config`
+* `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\etc\minttyrc` (usage deprecated with wsltty)
+
+Note:
+* `%APPDATA%\wsltty\config` is the new user configuration file location. 
+  Further subdirectories of `%APPDATA%\wsltty` are used for language, 
+  themes, and sounds resource configuration. 
+  Note the distinction from `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty` which is the default 
+  wsltty software installation location.
+* The `%APPDATA%\mintty\config` option provides the possibility to 
+  maintain common mintty settings for various installations (like 
+  wsltty, Cygwin, MinGW/msys, Git for Windows, MinEd for Windows).
+* (About deprecated options) By default, `%HOME%` would refer to the 
+  root directory of the cygwin standalone installation hosting wsltty. 
+  So `%HOME%` would mean `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\home\%USERNAME%`.
+  If you define `HOME` at Windows level, this changes accordingly.
+  Note, however, that the WSL `HOME` is a completely different setting.
+
+#### Shell selection ####
+
+To invoke your favourite shell, replace `/bin/bash` with its pathname 
+in the Desktop or Start Menu shortcuts and `*.bat` launch scripts, 
+or Explorer context menu commands.
