-Sample Usage:
+### Sample Usage:
 
 `python3 Ebook-Publisher.py www.some.website/stories/my-story -o epub -d ~/Documents/My\ Books/`
+
+`./Ebook-Publisher.py -f -o txt to-download.txt`
+
+### Using standard input:
+
+`cat list.txt | python3 Ebook-Publisher -d ./output`
+
+`echo www.some.website/stories/my-story | ./Ebook-Publisher.py -o epub -d ~/Documents/My\ Books/`
+
+### Advanced Usage:
+
+Create a symbolic link to the binaries directory to where you have saved the main Ebook-Publisher.py file. i.e. `ln -s Ebook-Publisher.py /usr/bin/Ebook-Publisher` This will allow running Ebook-Publisher from any directory and can be used to avoid having to specify either the full path to Ebook-Publisher.py or the desired output directory given your current working directory is the desired output directory. Make sure Ebook-Publisher.py is executable first: `chmod +x Ebook-Publisher.py`
