+## vim-argwrap ##
+
+This is an industrial strength argument wrapping and unwrapping extension for the [VIM](http://www.vim.org/) text
+editor. It can be used for collapsing and expanding everything from function calls to array and dictionary definitions.
+
+### Installation and Usage ###
+
+1.  Clone or otherwise download the vim-argwrap extension from the [GitHub
+    page](https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap). If you are using
+    [vim-pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) for plugin management (if you aren't you should) you can
+    clone the repository directly to your bundle directory:<br>`git clone
+    https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap ~/.vim/bundle/vim-argwrap`.
+1.  Create a keyboard binding for `argwrap#toggle()` inside your `~/.vimrc` file. For example, you may declare a normal
+    mode hotkey:<br>`nnoremap <silent> <leader>w :call argwrap#toggle()<CR>`.
+2.  Position cursor *inside* of the scope of the parenthesis or brackets you wish to wrap/unwrap (not on top or before
+    or after them).
+3.  Execute the keyboard binding defined above to *toggle* wrapping and unwrapping arguments.
+
+### Examples ###
+
+Below are examples of some common use cases demonstrating the capabilities of vim-argwrap. The extension functions the
+same way regardless if it is being used on a function call, list or dictionary definitions.
+
+Let's first look at a simple function invocation. When there are many arguments being passed in, we may wish to wrap
+them to improve readability. If we position your cursor anywhere between the `(` and `)` parenthesis and execute the
+`argwrap#toggle()` command, the function call arguments will be wrapped to one per line.
+
+```
+Foo('wibble', 'wobble', 'wubble')
+
+```
+```
+Foo(
+    'wibble',
+    'wobble',
+    'wubble'
+)
+
+```
+
+List definitions work in a similar fashion:
+
+```
+foo = ['bar', 'baz', 'qux', 'quux', 'corge']
+```
+```
+foo = [
+    'bar',
+    'baz',
+    'qux',
+    'quux',
+    'corge'
+]
+```
+
+Dictionaries work just fine too:
+
+```
+foo = {'bar': 1, 'baz': 3, 'qux': 3, 'quux': 7}
+```
+```
+foo = {
+    'bar': 1,
+    'baz': 3,
+    'qux': 3,
+    'quux': 7
+}
+```
+
+Finally, nested combinations of all the above are also supported:
+
+```
+Foo(['wibble', 'wobble', 'wubble'], 'spam', {'bar': 'baz', qux: [1, 3, 3, 7]})
+```
+```
+Foo(
+    ['wibble', 'wobble', 'wubble'],
+    'spam',
+    {'bar': 'baz', 'qux': [1, 3, 3, 7]}
+)
+
+Foo(
+    [
+        'wibble',
+        'wobble',
+        'wubble'
+    ],
+    'spam',
+    {
+        'bar': 'baz',
+        'qux': [
+            1,
+            3,
+            3,
+            7
+        ]
+    }
+)
+
+```
+
+All of the above argument wrapping and unwrapping operations demonstrated above are toggle-able and correctly preserve
+the indentation of the surrounding code. This extension has been tested to work in scenarios of various complexity, but
+if you discover a problem let me know.
