 ## How to use
 
-advmarkers introduces four chatcommands:
+`advmarkers` introduces the following chatcommands:
 
  - `.mrkr`: Opens a formspec allowing you to display or delete markers.
- - `.add_mrkr`: Adds markers. You can either use `.add_mrkr x,y,z Marker name` or `.add_mrkr here Marker name` to add markers. Markers are (currently) cross-server, and adding a marker with (exactly) the same name as another will overwrite the original marker.
+ - `.add_mrkr`: Adds markers. You can use `.add_mrkr x,y,z Marker name` to add markers. Markers are (currently) cross-server, and adding a marker with (exactly) the same name as another will overwrite the original marker. If you replace `x,y,z` with `here`, the marker will be set to your current position, and replacing it with `there` will set the marker to the last `.coords` position.
  - `.mrkr_export`: Exports your markers to an advmarkers string. Remember to not modify the text before copying it.
  - `.mrkr_import`: Imports your markers from an advmarkers string (`.mrkr_import <advmarkers string>`). Any markers with the same name will not be overwritten, and if they do not have the same co-ordinates, `_` will be appended to the imported one.
+ - `.mrkrthere`: Sets a marker at the last `.coords` position.
 
 If you die, a marker is automatically added at your death position.
 
+## Chat channels integration
+
+advmarkers works with the `.coords` command from chat_channels ([GitHub],
+[GitLab]), even without chat channels installed. When someone does `.coords`,
+advmarkers temporarily stores this position, and you can set a temporary marker
+at the `.coords` position with `.mrkrthere`, or add a permanent marker with
+`.add_mrkr there Marker name`.
