+## DIRECTIVES
+
+The global section (before any section header) may contain directives in the following form:
+
+* `set!`*variable*=*program*
+
+  *program* is executed by the shell as-if by system(3),
+  its standard output stream parsed as an arithmetic expression (like `zram-size`/`zram-resident-limit`),
+  then the result is remembered into *variable*,
+  usable in later `set!`s and `zram-size`s/`zram-resident-limit`s.
+
 ## ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
 
 Setting `ZRAM_GENERATOR_ROOT` during parsing will cause */proc/meminfo* to be read from *$ZRAM_GENERATOR_ROOT/proc/meminfo* instead,
