+Code-per-Node
+-------------
+This module allows arbitrary amounts of CSS or JS to be added to nodes and
+blocks.
+
+
+Features
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+The primary features include:
+
+* CSS and JS may be added to any node.
+
+* CSS and JS may be added to any block.
+
+* Control over whether the CSS and JS output is aggregated with other files.
+
+* Syntax highlighting for both CSS and JS using the CodeMirror library.
+
+* Optional support for Libraries API to control the location of the CodeMirror
+  library.
+
+
+Installation
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+The module should be installed and enabled in the usual way.
+
+If needed, the CodeMirror library (v2.1 or a newer v2.x release) should be
+downloaded from http://codemirror.net/, extracted and placed in:
+  sites/all/libraries/codemirror
+
+
+Configuration
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ 1. On the User Permissions administration page ("Administer >> Users
+    >> Permissions") you need to assign:
+
+    - The "edit CSS per node" permission to the roles that are allowed to add
+      custom CSS for individual nodes.
+
+    - The "edit JS per node" permission to the roles that are allowed to add
+      custom JavaScript for individual nodes.
+
+    - The "edit CSS per block" permission to the roles that are allowed to add
+      custom CSS for individual blocks.
+
+    - The "edit JS per block" permission to the roles that are allowed to add
+      custom JavaScript for individual blocks.
+
+ 2. The main admininistrative page controls the site-wide settings, including
+    the location of the custom files, and whether aggregation is enabled:
+      admin/settings/cpn
+
+ 3. Each content type can have the CSS & JS enabled on their respective edit
+    page, along with custom code that will be loaded on each node page of that
+    type.
+
+ 4. Each node add & edit page, belonging to the content type(s) enabled in step
+    3 above, will have a new section called "CSS & JavaScript" containing the
+    fields for entering the code.
+
+
+SECURITY WARNING
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+BE VERY CAREFUL with the user roles that are granted access to insert custom CSS
+and JS, THERE IS NO SECURITY FILTERING APPLIED to the code so only grant access
+to it to people who are trusted.
+
+
+Troubleshooting / Tips
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+* The CSS and JS will be automatically loaded on the appropriate pages, however
+  nothing is added to make the CSS or JS only affect the elements of that node
+  or block, so the code should be handled accordingly.
