Suggestion-Info more than "issue"

First: vkbasalt is awesome for old games on Linux! Big fat thank you!

Suggestion for the "how to use" section. Common knowledge for Linux gurus, I'm sure, but was challenging for me. At least in Xfce (Debian 12.x), when making a desktop launcher, the format to get it working took a bit of research for me. With the vulkan port of Serious Sam TSE as example, launching in the terminal was simple as:
"ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 /home/username/Portable/SamTSE/Bin/SeriousSam"

When making the desktop launcher (or start menu shortcut) I had to add the environment tag like so:
"env ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 /home/username/Portable/SamTSE/Bin/SeriousSam"

...and have my config file at "/home/username/.config/vkBasalt/vkBasalt.conf"
