README

        
## QLansilove is being moved to archive/read-only. Apple has deprecated quicklook generators in Big Sur in favor of including previews in app extensions. I will look to see if it would be possible to include this functionality in Ascension which is a more appropriate and Apple-like place for this functionality to land. -AK
