 This script exports a GitHub user's starred repositories (URL & description) to a CSV file.
 
-Usage: `GH_USER=defunkt python3 export_stars.py > stars.csv`
+Setup:
+
+    python -m pip install -i requirements.txt
+    pip install -i requirements.txt
+
+Usage:
+
+NOTE1 Under Microsoft Windows may need to set:
+
+    set PYTHONUTF8=1
+
+NOTE2 Can use without a token BUT if there are a lot of stars need a token to avoid `github.GithubException.RateLimitExceededException`
+
+    GH_USER=defunkt python3 export_stars/export_stars.py > stars.csv
+    python export_stars/export_stars.py --user defunkt > stars.csv
 
 Thanks to the authors of [PyGitHub](https://github.com/PyGithub/PyGithub) for the slick client library.
