Changed semantics of --no-perm-on-create flag

/proc/pid/exe already seems to be a link to the absolute path to the
executable. This fixes bugs related to containerised applications.

-  - zenity
-    - Debian: `sudo apt install zenity`
   - Build tools
     - Debian: `sudo apt install gcc make pkg-config`
 - Build using `make`:
   - In the project directory: `make`
-  - Use `make DEBUG=1` for testing.
+  - Add `DEBUG=1` to show more compiler warnings.
+  - Add `TEST=1` to also test the program.
+  - Add `DIALOGUE=0` to not compile the dialogue program.
 - Resulting binaries should appear in the `build` directory.
 
+## Installation
+
+Currently, there is no installer implemented.
+
 ## Usage
 
-`icfs <FUSE arguments> [target directory]`
+```
+icfs <FUSE arguments> [target directory] [path to permanent permission database]
+```
 
-The filesystem will be mounted over the target directory, and ask user permission every time a file in that directory is opened.
+The filesystem will be mounted over the target directory, and ask user permission every time a file in that directory is opened. We highly recommend adding `-o default_permissions` to increase performance and add an additional security layer.
+
+### Development build
+
+Execute this command in the root directory of this project:
+
+```
+env PATH="$(realpath ./build):$PATH" build/icfs <FUSE arguments> [target directory] [path to permanent permission database]
+```
+
+The `env PATH="$(realpath ./build):$PATH"` adds the access dialogue program to PATH, allowing ICFS to call it seamlessly.
