 # Beardbolt
 
+![beardbolt in action](./beardbolt.gif)
+
 An experimental fork of [RMSbolt](https://gitlab.com/jgkamat/rmsbolt),
 itself a supercharged implementation of [godbolt
 compiler-explorer](https://github.com/mattgodbolt/compiler-explorer)
 for Emacs.
 
-Beardbolt tries to make it easy to see what your compiler is doing.
-It does this by showing you the assembly output of a given source code
-file.  It also highlights which source code a given assembly block
-corresponds to, and vice versa.

 ### Why RMSbolt over Beardbolt
 
 - Supports more languages/compilers. Beardbolt only C++/C clang/gcc.
 - Has good documentation and a proper API.
-- Supports more Emacs versions.  Beardbolt only 28+
-- Support compile-commands.json
+- Supports more Emacs versions.  Beardbolt probably only 28+
 
 ### Why Beardbolt over RMSbolt
 
 - Doesn't require file to be saved.
-- 2-5x faster on typical files.  See [here][#benchmarks])

 The results were obtained on my Thinkpad T480 running Emacs 29
 (without native compilation).
