 # pld.h
 Functions and logging generally useful for preloads
 
+## Why Make This Header?
+
+I do a lot of preloads in general to debug and mess with applications.
+That makes it useful to have a quick and dirty header file I can just
+include in a single file in order to easily fetch loaded modules
+and get their respective functions.
+
+## Usage
+
+You can just include the header file in your preload main source file.
+All the functions in the header are static so keep that in mind when
+your preload spans multiple files.
+
+The following macros are defined to load libraries and symbols
+
+```
+PLD(name)
+* Use the library with this name when loading functions
+
+PLDH
+* PLD(name) defines a function with this name
+* You can use this macro to redefine the preloaded library if preloading multiple libraries
+
+PFNALTFIND(name, alt)
+* Use the type signature of the variable called "name", but use the string "alt" to look it up
+* This is useful for ordinals in Windows or typecasting in general
+
+PFNFIND(name)
+* Use both the string name and type signature of the variable called "name"
+* Equivalent to PFNALTFIND(name, #name)
+
+PFNALT(h, name, alt)
+* Like PFNALTFIND, but cache the result in a new static variable named via "h"
+
+PFN(h, name)
+* Like PFNFIND but cache the result in a new static variable named via "h"
+```
+
+Usages are in the ``examples`` directory
+
+## Why Use This Header?
+
+* Type signatures don't need to be typed out when hooking functions.
+* Saves boilerplate needed to load the libraries/functions while checking the return values.
+* Works with the Following Compilers
+  - MSVC
+  - GCC
+  - Clang
+  - TCC
+* Works with C and C++
+* Comes with logging using only ``write`` on POSIX or ``WriteFile`` on Windows by default
+  - Logging can be overridden to be another function or not even present, see ``write.c`` in ``examples``
+  - Not essential but it helps diagnose silly things like spelling errors very quickly.
