34   
35   In short, it just keeps a linked list of settings/variables and it also
36   remembers a default value for every setting. And to prevent the user
37   from setting invalid values, you can write an evaluator function for
38   every setting, which can check a new value and block it by returning
39   NULL, or replace it by returning a new value. See struct set.eval.
40   One thing that is really missing here is additional data for the
41   evaluator. This could be useful to add minimum and maximum values for
42   integers, for example. */
