 # Helium Bowser installer & updater
 ## Purpose
-This script was initially designed to just update my Helium browser but over time and interest it got more functional and universal. It includes functions to install, update, remove, add launcher, etc... and is distro independent.
+This script was initially designed to just update my Helium browser but over time and interest it got more functional and universal. It includes functions to install, update, remove, add launcher, etc... It's supposed to run in user space and is (Linux) distro independent I suppose.
 
 With "little" tinkering it should be possible to apply this script to install, update & configure many kinds of releases from source, like Debian packages, AppImages, binaries, etc...
 ## Usage
-Help
+### Help
 ```sh
 ./helium_helper.sh -h
 ```
+---
 ### First Install
 To initally install Helium browser via this script, download helium_helper.sh and make it executable:
 ```sh
 wget https://lab.c95.org/fr4nz/helium-helper/raw/branch/main/helium_helper.sh && chmod +x helium_helper.sh
 ```
 Run script with install parameter _-i_
+- Default install directory = `$HOME/.apps/Helium`
 ```sh
 ./helium_helper.sh -i
 ```
-Add alias to `.shellrc` | _optional_
+
+**OPTIONAL** :  Add alias to `.shellrc` | _working in zsh, bash & fish_
+- Default alias = `update-helium`
 ```sh
-./helium_helper.sh -a   ### ONLY TESTED WITH zsh & bash
+./helium_helper.sh -a
 ```
+
 ---
 ### Updating
-**From launcher** (if added)
+**From launcher** (if added during install or by running `./helium_helper.sh -l`)
 
 Checking for the latest version and updating can simply be done for the browser as well as the script by right clicking the app icon and choosing either update option, which will be run by `helium_launcher_update.sh`. This will backup all files that are being updated and write a log.
 
 **Terminal**
 
 Updating can also be done by running:
+- Update Helium Browser
 ```sh
-./helium_helper.sh -u   ### UPDATE APP
+./helium_helper.sh -u
 ```
+- Update Helium Helper
 ```sh
-./helium_helper.sh -S   ### UPDATE SCRIPT
+./helium_helper.sh -S
 ```
-Since this script is interactive, it doesn't keep logs.
+---
+### Backing up
+Backing up, by default, pulls all important files, folders & configuration and compresses an archive, which is stored in `$HOME/.apps/Helium/assets`
+- Default backup
+```sh
+./helium_helper.sh -b
+```
+- Backup to custom path
+```sh
+./helium_helper.sh -b </PATH/TO/DESTINATION>
+```
+**NOTE:** The backup path specified won't be overridden within the script yet. Working on it...
+
+**Since this script is interactive, it doesn't keep logs.**
