+This repository contains the following scripts:
+  * [gpio_trigger.py](#gpio_trigger)
+    is s script to execute a command when a GPIO input pin changes
+  * [rpi_no_hdmi.service](#services)
+    is a systemd service to disable the Raspberry Pi's HDMI port at boot
+  * [rpi_no_usb.service](#services)
+    is a systemd service to disable the Raspberry Pi's USB bus at boot
+  * [rpi_no_wifi.service](#services)
+    is a systemd service to disable on-board WiFi on Raspberry Pi at boot
+  * [rpi_poweroff_button.service](#services)
+    is a systemd service to support a power-off button using [gpio_trigger.py](#gpio_trigger)
+
+
+<a name=gpio_trigger>gpio_trigger.py</a>
+----------------------------------------
+This script was initially written to add a power-off button to a Raspberry Pi,
+[see this blog post](https://frederik.lindenaar.nl/2019/10/23/raspberry-pi-power-off-button.html)
+for the rationale behind it and how to construct and connect a physical button.
+
+The script itself is a generic solution to monitor a GPIO pin and executes a
+command when the input signal on a pin changes. It can run as interactively as
+well as in the background and executes a command once or continuously upon any
+change or specific transition (e.g. HIGH to LOW).
+
+The script is written in Python 2 and uses the `RPi.GPIO` library as both are
+installed by default on most distributions so should just work. Please note that
+by default the script should be started as root to gain access to the GPIO port.
+
+To implement a simple power-off button, install the script in `/usr/local/sbin`,
+connect an NC switch (i.e. one that connects when pressed) between pin 39 (GND)
+and pin 40 of the Raspberry Pi and add:
+
+~~~
+if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/gpio_trigger.py ]; then
+  /usr/local/sbin/gpio_trigger.py -D -H 5000 poweroff
+fi
+~~~
+
+to the file `/etc/rc.local`. This will start the script in the background (`-D`)
+to wait for pin 40 (default pin) to be connected to ground for 5000ms (`-H`) and
+then run the command `poweroff` to shutdown the Raspberry Pi.
+
+Please refer to the output of `gpio_trigger.py -h` for the options supported and
+defaults used when no option is specified.
+
+
+<a name=services>Systemd services</a>
+-------------------------------------
+The repository contains a number of `.service` files, which are systemd service
+descriptions to control specific on-board features of the Raspberry Pi (e.g. to
+disable unused ports). Their purpose should be pretty clear from their name (and
+comments they contain). The rationale of the initial scripts is covered in this
+[blog post](https://frederik.lindenaar.nl/2018/05/11/raspberry-pi-power-saving-disable-hdmi-port-and-others-the-systemd-way.html).
+
+In general, to install these copy them to the directory `/etc/systemd/system/`
+
+To manually disable the port, 'start' the 'service' with:
+
+~~~
+service <<filename without .service>> start
+~~~
+
+To manually enable the port again, 'stop' the 'service' with:
+
+~~~
+service <<filename without .service>> stop
+~~~
+
+To enable starting during system boot (to disable the port) run:
+
+~~~
+systemctl enable service <<filename without .service>>
+~~~
+
+To disable starting during system boot (to no longer disable the port) run:
+
+~~~
+systemctl disable service <<filename without .service>>
+~~~
