+# Ghost
+
+*Your friendly helper with /etc/hosts, written in Go!*
+
+## Features
+
+- Extending existing lines
+- Deduplication
+- Format check
+- `SUID` safe!
+
+## Usage
+
+To add two domain names, `domain1.foo` and `domain2.bar`, for the IP addres `10.0.0.1`:
+
+`./ghost 10.0.0.1 domain1.foo domain2.bar`
+
+The added line will look like this:
+
+```
+10.0.0.1        domain1.foo domain2.bar # Added by ghost on 26-10-2023
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+The tool is safe to use with the [SUID bit](https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/suid-sgid-sticky-bit), which is very handy for not entering your password when adding hostnames to your `/etc/hosts` file every time.
+
+While this is very handy for CTFs or platforms like Hack The Box, this is also a big security issue, e.g. if you are on a multi-user machine. **Use with caution!**
