@ -43,8 +43,8 @@ Right now there are some alternatives to UEFITool that you could find useful too
## Installation
You can either use [pre-built binaries for Windows and macOS](https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool/releases) or build a binary yourself.
* To build a binary that uses Qt library (UEFITool) you need a C++ compiler and an instance of [Qt5 or Qt6](https://www.qt.io) library. Install both of them, get the sources, generate makefiles using qmake (`qmake ./UEFITool/uefitool.pro`) and use your system's make command on that generated files (i.e. `nmake release`, `make release` and so on).
* To build a binary that doesn't use Qt (UEFIExtract, UEFIFind), you need a C++ compiler and [CMAKE](https://cmake.org) utility to generate a makefile for your OS and build environment. Install both of them, get the sources, generate makefiles using cmake (`cmake UEFIExtract`) and use your system's make command on that generated files (i.e. `nmake release`, `make release` and so on).

Qt6-based builds can also use CMAKE as an altearnative build system.

Non-Qt builds can also use Meson as an alternative build system.
## Known issues
* Image editing is currently only possible using an outdated and unsupported UEFITool 0.28 (`old_engine` branch) and the tools based on it (`UEFIReplace`, `UEFIPatch`). This is the top priority issue #67, which is being worked on, albeit slowly (due to the amount of coding and testing required to implement it correctly).
