+Installation on Windows
+=======================
+Dependencies
+------------
+- Gcc (only tested on [Win-Builds](http://win-builds.org/), but any MSYS, CYGWIN, MINGW should be worked
+- [libusb-1.0](http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/libusb-1.0/)
+
+Build
+-----
+
+- After downloaded, extract them to some directory; such as D:\lib\libusb-1.0.xx\
+- Remember two path which "libusb.h" file and "libusb-1.0.a" inside
+
+*Note* For MinGW32, use **MinGW32/static/libusb-1.0.a** while MinGW64 use **MinGW64/static/libusb-1.0.a** for linker
+
+- Open `$(GOPATH)/src/github.com/kylelemons/gousb/usb/usb.go`. 
+
+Then edit `#cgo` directive, such as
+
+        // #cgo CFLAGS: -ID:/lib/libusbx-1.0.xx/include
+        // #cgo LDFLAGS: D:/lib/libusbx-1.0.xx/MinGW64/static/libusb-1.0.a
+
+
+to your `libusb-1.0` installed path before the line:
+
+    // #include <libusb-1.0/libusb.h>
+
+This flag will tell the linker the exact path of static library.
+Then install `gousb`:
+
+- Go to `$(GOPATH)/src/github.com/kylelemons/gousb/`. Run:
+
+        $ go install ./...
+		
+	`lsusb` can run under `$GOBIN/lsusb`
