-  `archive' creates tar(1) files from a pre-defined list.
-  `%archive_dispatch' contains that list.
+  `%dispatch' has the pre-defined list. Learn the list directly from
+  `leo.pl', it's self-explanatory. Or check the sub `HelpMessage', it
+  explains what each command does.
 
   For example, `documents' will archive `$ENV{HOME}/documents' to
   `/tmp/archive/documents_$ymd.tar' where `$ymd' is current date in
   `YYYY-MM-DD' format.

+  I had created a sync function initially & was going to expand it. Then
+  I decided to remove those sync functions because it was too complex, I

-  There were sync functions, they synced some of my files to remote
-  servers. I replaced it with simple `sh' scripts instead.
+  I added a simple `archive' function later & decided to turn Leo into
+  that function. So, it's not a meta-program anymore. I was thinking of
+  creating something that does all the things for me but that'll be too
+  complex.
