## Final notes
I think that's everything. If I've forgotten to document something, please let
me know. I know this readme is long but, I hate how much stuff for linux and
open-source programs/scripts in general are so poorly documented especially for
newbies and I didn't want to make that same mistake.
I don't script too often and I'm a horrible programmer, so if you see anything
that can be/should be improved, please let me know or submit your changes! I
love learning new ways of doing things and getting feedback, so suggestions and
comments are more than welcome.
