Documentation of these scripts is really difficult to follow #27

Would you be willing to accept a PR that cleans up some of the language in this repo's README.md?

Specifically, Step 7 is as tedious as understanding a train wreck. The correct operation is closer to something like:

  1. Open PcbNew without opening KiCad
  2. File > Open
  3. In the file type filter drop down, select Eagle ver. 6x XML PCB files (*.brd)
  4. Select original, Eagle .brd file used for the rest of the ULP conversion process
  5. Open the file

If no errors occur:

  1. File > Save As...
  2. Navigate to the kicad/ directory the ULP scripts put it's output files (Note: If you changed the ULP output directory, look in there instead)
  3. Select the .kicad_pcb file that's already there
  4. Click Save

Continue to Step 8
