+Pinger.py
+=========
+A ping tool that sits in your system tray
+---------
+
+- Saves your sanity when the wifi sucks
+- Doesn't clutter up your screen with ping windows
+- Lets you know when pings fail instead of silently failing
+- **Currently for Ubuntu only**
+ - (Requires Python, GTK, and AppIndicator3)
+ - Startup Automatically option creates a `~/.config/autostart/pinger.desktop` file
+ - **Contributions welcome to expand to other OSes!**
+
+**Usage (in Ubuntu):**
+
+Open the Terminal program and enter the following commands:
+
+    cd ~
+    git clone https://github.com/zyphlar/pinger.git
+    python pinger/pinger.py &
+
+Pinger should open in your system tray (It just looks like "XX.X ms"). To set Pinger to start automatically (in Ubuntu) click it and choose Start Automatically.
+
+Report bugs or feature requests at https://github.com/zyphlar/pinger/issues
