-Elven Relativism -- relocation and execution of aarch64 ELF relocatable objects (REL)
+Elven Relativism -- relocation and execution of aarch64 ELF relocatable objects (REL) on Linux and macOS.
 
 Program loads a multitude of ELF REL files, resolves all relocations (currently only SHT_RELA) and if symbol `_start` in some section `.text` is found, passes control to the former.
 
 ## Details
 
 * RELs loaded in the order specified on the command line; all relocations in a given REL performed at its loading time.
 * Missing-symbol (SHN_UNDEF) resolution via reverse-direction search among the preceding RELs; first-match deterministic.
-* Support for RO sections `.rodata` and `.text`; every other type of section is RW; `.bss` addressing may take HI21/LO12.
-* Address-space sanitation -- disposing of pre-existing VMAs (*VMA filtering*) via string matching to VMA backing path.
