+Batteries inlcuded repo to patch MonoLisa with Nerd Fonts glyphs
+
+## Before You Begin
+
+First you will need to install `fontforge`
+There are a number of caveats to invoking the `font-patcher` script.
+Some of which are explained by [nerd fonts](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#font-patcher).
+
+Using `patch-monolisa` assumes you have installed fontforge using your system dependency manager.
+On ubuntu: `sudo apt-get install fontforge`.
+
+## Downloading MonoLisa
+
+Once you have acquired MonoLisa, follow the link in your email to download it.
+Then extract the `.zip` into `MonoLisa/`.
+
+## Patching your font
+
+Once you have downloaded MonoLisa and `fontforge`
+you can easily apply the nerd font patches using the `patch-monolisa` script.
+The only required argument is the font file extension you want to patch. 
+All remiaining supplied arguments are passed to the `font-patcher` script.
+
+```bash
+./patch-monolisa otf -c -w
+```
