 # CountDown.sh
+
 A simple script to countdown from a certain number to zero. I made it so that
 I can easily delay the playing time of songs by a few seconds before I play it
 on the guitar.
 
-```
-USAGE:
-	countdown.sh <sec>
-
-OPTIONS:
-	<sec>      number to countdown from [default: 5]
-
-EXAMPLE:
-	Countdown from 7 and then play Scott Stapp's "Last Hallelujah"
-		./countdown 7 ; mpv 12_-_Last_Hallelujah.flac
-```
