Example from Linguist:

	// Load C functions declared in utils.loadFuncs
	var shouldLoadCFuncs = true;
	// Expose the C functions to cycript's global scope
	var shouldExposeCFuncs = true;

	var shouldExposeConsts = true;
	// Expose functions defined here to cycript's global scope
	var shouldExposeFuncs = true;
	// Which functions to expose
	var funcsToExpose = ["exec", "include", "sizeof", "logify", "apply", "str2voidPtr", "voidPtr2str", "double2voidPtr", "voidPtr2double", "isMemoryReadable", "isObject", "makeStruct"];
	
	// C functions that utils.loadFuncs loads
	var CFuncsDeclarations = [
