+:so ~/.vimrc
+:PluginInstall
+```

+### Disable Folding
 
-Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable folding.
+Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable the folding configuration:
 
 ```vim
 let g:vim_markdown_folding_disabled=1
 ```
 
+This option only controls Vim Markdown specific folding configuration.
+
+To enable/disable folding use Vim's standard folding configuration.
+
+```vim
+set [no]foldenable
+```
+
+### Disable Default Key Mappings
+
+Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable default key mappings:

+```
+
+You can also map them by yourself with `<Plug>` mappings.
+
+### Syntax extensions
+
+The following options control which syntax extensions will be turned on. They are off by default.
+
+#### LaTeX math
+
+Used as `$x^2$`, `$$x^2$$`, escapable as `\$x\$` and `\$\$x\$\$`.
+
+```vim
+let g:vim_markdown_math=1
+```
+
+#### YAML frontmatter
+
+Highlight YAML frontmatter as used by Jekyll:
+
+```vim
+let g:vim_markdown_frontmatter=1
+```
+
+## Mappings
+
+The following work on normal and visual modes:
+
+-   `gx`: open the link under the cursor in the same browser as the standard `gx` command.
+
+    The standard `gx` is extended by allowing you to put your cursor anywhere inside a link.
+
+    For example, all the following cursor positions will work:
+
+        [Example](http://example.com)
+        ^  ^    ^^   ^       ^
+        1  2    34   5       6
+
+        <http://example.com>
+        ^  ^               ^
+        1  2               3
+
+    Known limitation: does not work for links that span multiple lines.
+
+-   `]]`: go to next header. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToNextHeader)`
+
+-   `[[`: go to previous header. Contrast with `]c`. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToPreviousHeader)`
+
+-   `][`: go to next sibling header if any. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToNextSiblingHeader)`
+
+-   `[]`: go to previous sibling header if any. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToPreviousSiblingHeader)`
+
+-   `]c`: go to Current header. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToCurHeader)`
+
+-   `]u`: go to parent header (Up). `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToParentHeader)`
+
+## Commands
+
+-   `:HeaderDecrease`:
+
+    Decrease level of all headers in buffer: `h2` to `h1`, `h3` to `h2`, etc.
+
+    If range is given, only operate in the range.
+
+    If an `h1` would be decreased, abort.
+
+    For simplicity of implementation, Setex headers are converted to Atx.
+
+-   `:HeaderIncrease`: Analogous to `:HeaderDecrease`, but increase levels instead.
+
+-   `:SetexToAtx`:
+
+    Convert all Setex style headers in buffer to Atx.
+
+    If a range is given, e.g. hit `:` from visual mode, only operate on the range.
+
+-   `:TableFormat`: Format the table under the cursor [like this](http://www.cirosantilli.com/markdown-styleguide/#tables).
+
+    Requires [Tabular](https://github.com/godlygeek/tabular).
+
+    The input table *must* already have a separator line as the second line of the table.
+    That line only needs to contain the correct pipes `|`, nothing else is required.
+
+-   `:Toc`: create a quickfix vertical window navigable table of contents with the headers.
+
+    Hit `<Enter>` on a line to jump to the corresponding line of the markdown file.
+
+-   `:Toch`: Same as `:Toc` but in an horizontal window.
+
+-   `:Toct`: Same as `:Toc` but in a new tab.
+
+-   `:Tocv`: Same as `:Toc` for symmetry with `:Toch` and `Tocv`.
