+# tcpdump installation notes
 If you have not built libpcap, and your system does not have libpcap
 installed, install libpcap first.  Your system might provide a version
 of libpcap that can be installed; if so, to compile tcpdump you might
 need to install a "developer" version of libpcap as well as the
 "run-time" version.  You can also install tcpdump.org's version of
-libpcap; see the README.md file in this directory for the location.
+libpcap; see [this file](README.md) for the location.
 
 You will need a C99 compiler to build tcpdump.  The build system
 will abort if your compiler is not C99 compliant.  If this happens, use
 the generally available GNU C compiler (GCC) or Clang.
