+## What is this ?
+This is a command line tool to generate the `steam_settings` folder for the emu,  
+you need a Steam account to grab most info, but you can use an anonymous account with limited access to Steam data.  
+
+<br/>
+
+## Usage
+```bash
+generate_emu_config [options] <app id 1> [app id 2] [app id 3] ...
+```  
+
+You'll be asked each time to enter your username and password.  
+
+You can also place a file called `my_login.txt` beside this tool with the following data:  
+* Your **username** on the **first** line
+* Your **password** on the **second** line  
+
+**But beware though of accidentally distributing your login data when using this file**.  
+---
+
+<br/>
+
+## Available **\[options\]**
+To get all available options, run the tool without any arguments.  
+* `app id 1`: the ID of the first app, this is mandatory
+* `app id <n>`: multiple/more app IDs to grab the data for
+* `-shots`: download some additional screenshots for the app/game
+* `-thumbs`: download some additional thumbnails for the app/game
+* `-vid`: attempt to download the trailer/promo video
+* `-imgs`: download common Steam imgaes, this includes a poster, Steam generated background, icon(s), and some other assets
+* `-name`: output the data in a folder with the name of the app/game, illegal characters are removed
+* `-cdx`: generate `.ini` file to be used by CODEX emu, this is quite outdated and needs manual editiong
+* `-aw`: generate all schemas for Achievement Watcher by xan105: https://github.com/xan105/Achievement-Watcher  
+* `-clean`: attempt to cleanup/remove the output folder from previous runs, if it exists, before downloading the data again
+* `-anon`: use anonymous account to login to Steam instead of using your own,  
+  note that this account has very limited access to data, and it can't download most info
+
+### Example
+
+```bash
+generate_emu_config -shots -thumbs -vid -imgs -name -cdx -aw -clean 421050 480
+```
