-<p>Domsson’s <a href="https://github.com/domsson/fakesteak" class="external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fakesteak</a> inspired
-this project. I added the following features while trying to keep the original
-project’s simplicity intact as much as possible:</p>
+<p>This project is a fork of Domsson’s beautiful <a href="https://github.com/domsson/fakesteak" class="external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fakesteak</a>.</p>
 
-<ul>
-  <li>Customize the rain color to match the theme of the setup.</li>
-  <li>Support for UTF-32 characters.</li>
-  <li>The ghosting effect of old monochrome displays.</li>
-  <li>The rain more closely resembles the original from the first movie.</li>
-</ul>
+<p>There are three color settings: head, tail, and background. They are configured
+by setting the 24-bit RGB channels using <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_*_RED</code>, <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_*_GRN</code>, and
+<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_*_BLU</code> definitions. The ghosting effect of old monochrome screens is
+achieved by scaling the RGB channels. This results in a rain effect that
+closely resembles the original from the first Matrix movie.</p>
 
-<p>To use them, you need a terminal emulator that supports 24-bit RGB colors and
-Unicode characters.</p>
-
-<p>The background, head, and tail colors of the rain can be configured via
-<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_BG_*</code>, <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_HD_*</code>, and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">COLOR_TL_*</code> settings. The <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">UNICODE_MIN</code> and
-<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">UNICODE_MAX</code> values control the character set used for the rain. For instance,
-use <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">0x30A1</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">0x30F6</code> for Katakana:</p>
+<p>In addition, this implementation supports UTF-32 character sets. The
+<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">UNICODE_MIN</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">UNICODE_MAX</code> controls the Unicode block used. For
+instance, setting them to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">0x30A1</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">0x30F6</code> rains Katakana:</p>
