 This is a specialized fork of [mkxp by Ancurio](https://github.com/Ancurio/mkxp) designed for [*OneShot*](http://oneshot-game.com/).
 
-Thanks to [hunternet93](https://github.com/hunternet93) for the macOS and Linux [reimplementation of the journal program](https://github.com/hunternet93/OneShot-Journal)!
+Thanks to [hunternet93](https://github.com/hunternet93) for starting the reimplementation of the journal program!
 
 > mkxp is a project that seeks to provide a fully open source implementation of the Ruby Game Scripting System (RGSS) interface used in the popular game creation software "RPG Maker XP", "RPG Maker VX" and "RPG Maker VX Ace" (trademark by Enterbrain, Inc.), with focus on Linux. The goal is to be able to run games created with the above software natively without changing a single file.

 By default, *SyngleChance* switches into the directory where its binary is contained and then starts reading the configuration and resolving relative paths. In case this is undesired (eg. when the binary is to be installed to a system global, read-only location), it can be turned off by adding `DEFINES+=WORKDIR_CURRENT` to qmake's arguments.
 
-pkg-config will look for `ruby-2.2.pc`, but you can override the version with `MRIVERSION=2.3` ('2.3' being an example). This is the default binding, so no arguments to qmake needed (`BINDING=MRI` to be explicit).

 ### Supported image/audio formats

 To run *SyngleChance*, you should have a graphics card capable of at least **OpenGL (ES) 2.0** with an up-to-date driver installed.
