-### Generating help tags
-
-Some package managers, such as Vundle, will automatically generate help tags.
-Others, such as Pathogen, won't by default, so you have to do it yourself.
-Also, if you have installed Vdebug manually then you will also have to do this
-step.
-
-For pathogen users, you can add this to your vimrc file to automatically
-generate helptags for your plugins:
-
-```vim
-call pathogen#helptags()
-```
-
-To manually generate the tags, run this in vim:
-
-```vim
-:helptags /path/to/vdebug/doc

-### Using Vundle
-
-Add this to your `~/.vimrc` file:
-
-```vim
-Plugin 'joonty/vdebug'
-```
-
-Then, from the command line, run:
-
-```bash
-vim +PluginInstall +qall

-Or, in vim, run:
-```vim
-:PluginInstall

-For new changes to take effect, you may have to reload your .vimrc first:
-```vim
-:source $MYVIMRC

+* install manually: Clone or download a tarball of the plugin and move its
+ content in your `~/.vim/` directory. You should call `:helptags ~/.vim/doc`

+* use Pathogen: Clone this repository to your `~/.vim/bundle` directory and

+* use your favorite plugin manager: Put the respective instruction in your init
+ file and update your plugins afterwards. For Vundle this would be `Plugin
+ 'joonty/vdebug'` and `:PluginInstall`.
