+# Brainfucked
+
+Its brainfuck but with manual memory allocation :3
+
+All normal brainfuck is valid brainfucked. Though your tape only starts with as much memory that can hold a pointer. In other words, if you're on a 64 bit computer you get 8 cells, and if you're on a 32bit computer you get 4 cells. 
+
+Pointers in brainfucked span as many cells as they are bytes.
+
+Just like brainfuck, cells wrap from 0 to 255, and vice versa, and also the tape wraps from front to end and end to front. The tape will not wrap though if you are inputting a string.
+
+## Commands
+
+`<` Move pointer left
+
+`>` Move pointer right
+
+`+` Increment cell by one
+
+`-` Decrement cell by one
+
+`[` Jump past the matching ] if the cell at the pointer is 0
+
+`]` Jump back to the matching [ if the cell at the pointer is nonzero
+
+`.` Output ascii at current cell
+
+`,` Input ascii into current cell
+
+`*` Allocate new tape size of current cell and replace with pointer
+
+`!` Free allocated pointer in current cell
+
+`(` Go to tape at pointer in current cell
+
+`)` Leave tape last entered
+
+`` ` `` Output null terminated string at current cell
+
+`~` Input string into current cells with max length in current cell
+
+`%` Clear screen
+
+`\` Comment out the rest of the line
+
+## Usage
+
+The `brainfucked` command expects only one argument which is the path to a file containing brainfucked.

+
+```shell
+$ make # compiles the program
+$ sudo make install # installs the binary
+```
+
+If you wish to remove the program, you can run
