+# MPQ Packer
+
+A simple command line utility for generating custom WoW 3.3.5 Patches.
+
+- Maximum size of 4gb
+- ZLib Compression
+- List File Generation
+- Attributes File Generation
+
+### Usage
+
+`mpq-packer.exe path/to/folder path/to/path/patch-X.mpq`
+
+### Linux Support
+
+This has been tested on Ubuntu 20.04 using Wine and works well. 
+
+I do strongly recommend however creating a 64bit WINEPREFIX for it.
+
+Eg: `WINEPREFIX=~/.mpq-packer WINEARCH="win64" winecfg`
+
+Then calling the command via `WINEPREFIX=~/mpq-packer wine mpq-packer.exe "Path_to_folder" "Path_to_MPQ"`
