 LZ4 - Library Files
 ================================
 
-This directory contains many files, but you don't necessarily need them all.
+The __lib__ directory contains several files, but you don't necessarily need them all.
 
-If you want to integrate LZ4 compression/decompression into your program, you basically need to include "**lz4.c**" and "**lz4.h**" only.
+To integrate fast LZ4 compression/decompression into your program, you basically just need "**lz4.c**" and "**lz4.h**".
 
-If you want more compression, at the cost of compression speed (but preserving decompression speed), you will also have to include "**lz4hc.c**" and "**lz4hc.h**". Note that lz4hc needs lz4 to work properly.
+For more compression at the cost of compression speed (while preserving decompression speed), use **lz4hc** on top of regular lz4. `lz4hc` only provides compression functions. It also needs `lz4` to compile properly.
 
-Next level, if you want to produce files or data streams compatible with lz4 utility, you will have to use and include "**lz4frame.c**" and **lz4frame.h**". This library encapsulate lz4-compressed blocks into the official interoperable frame format. In order to work properly, lz4frame needs lz4 and lz4hc, and also "**xxhash.c**" and "**xxhash.h**", which provide the error detection algorithm.
+If you want to produce files or data streams compatible with `lz4` command line utility, use **lz4frame**. This library encapsulates lz4-compressed blocks into the [official interoperable frame format]. In order to work properly, lz4frame needs lz4 and lz4hc, and also **xxhash**, which provides error detection algorithm.
+(_Advanced stuff_ : It's possible to hide xxhash symbols into a local namespace. This is what `liblz4` does, to avoid symbol duplication in case a user program would link to several libraries containing xxhash symbols.)
 
-A more complex "lz4frame_static.h" is also provided, although its usage is not recommended. It contains definitions which are not guaranteed to remain stable within future versions. Use only if you don't plan to update your lz4 version.

- * CPU_HAS_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_MEMORY_ACCESS :

- * the compiler will issue cautious code even when target is able to correctly handle unaligned memory accesses.

- * You can force the compiler to use unaligned memory access by uncommenting the line below.
- * One of the below scenarios will happen :
- * 1 - Your target CPU correctly handle unaligned access, and was not well optimized by compiler (good case).
- *     You will witness large performance improvements (+50% and up).
- *     Keep the line uncommented and send a word to upstream (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/lz4c)
- *     The goal is to automatically detect such situations by adding your target CPU within an exception list.
- * 2 - Your target CPU correctly handle unaligned access, and was already already optimized by compiler
- *     No change will be experienced.
- * 3 - Your target CPU inefficiently handle unaligned access.
- *     You will experience a performance loss. Comment back the line.
- * 4 - Your target CPU does not handle unaligned access.
- *     Program will crash.
- * If uncommenting results in better performance (case 1)
