 **** listing effects
 effects are listed by writing the trait's name, followed by a parenthesized list of the functions that will be used
 
-functions can be given an alias using the ~as~ keyword
+***** listing effect functions
+
+due to limitations of proc-macros, it's unknown what kind of ~self~ parameter the function takes, if any, and so it has to be explicitly specified (if you have ideas on how to fix this, please open a PR!): here's how each type is specified:
+
+- ~fn print();~: ~print~
+- ~fn print(self);~: ~print(self)~
+- ~fn print(mut self);~: ~print(self)~
+- ~fn print(&self);~: ~print(&self)~
+- ~fn print(&mut self);~: ~print(&mut self)~
+
+***** effect function aliases
+functions can be given an alias using the ~as~ keyword (~print(&self) as p~) so that the function can be called by a different name inside the program
