==========
-The patch allows users to change the DWM panel and dmenu color schemes on the fly.
-Eight schemes are available by default, but more can be added.
+The patch enables users to switch DWM panel and dmenu color schemes on the fly.
+Eight schemes are included by default, with the option to add more.
+It is designed to integrate smoothly with the [optionscheme](../../../st.suckless.org/patches/optionscheme/) patch for ST.
