 ===========
 
 This module implements the `pkg-config` tool as a library in pure V.
@@ -11,21 +11,21 @@ Features:
 * Resolve full path for `.pc` file given a name
 * Recursively parse all the dependencies
 * Find and replace all inner variables
+* Integration with V, so you can just do `#pkgconfig r_core`
 
 Todo/Future/Wish:
 
 * 100% compatibility with `pkg-config` options
-* Integration with V, to support pkgconfig with `system()`
 * Strictier pc parsing logic, with better error reporting
 
 Example
