      9 `vars` and `arrs` are global arrays holding other global variables and arrays.
     10 this is required for `zuper` and helps a lot with debugging. if you declare new
     11 variables or arrays, add them to `vars` and `arrs`, respectively.

     46 ## overriding things
     47 
     48 to be able to override specific unwanted functions of libdevuansdk, consider
     49 sourcing it earlier in the process of initialization.
     50 
     51 it is possible to override default variables, or even functions without the need
     52 of editing libdevuansdk. share a patch with me if you wish :)
