 Supported modifiers are:
-- *l*iteral - macro body is literal, *%* is not processed when expanding
+- *l*: Literal expansion. *%* is not processed when expanding.
+- *o*: One-shot expansion. The macro is expanded on first use and the
+  literal result is pushed on top of the original macro.
+
+Literal macros can simplify dealing with content that may contain
+percent signs (*%*) which otherwise would need to be escaped.
+
+One-shot macros are useful for caching expansion results, for example to
+guard a result against underlying changes, or to perform an expensive
+shell-invocation just once.

And the "e" in "seemes" is also a bit extra, lol.
