 - `_makexconfig`: Invokes `make xconfig` (X11-based GUI configuration menu) before compilation starts
-- `_use_current`: Will use the configuration of the running kernel, if the running kernel is compiled with `IKCONFIG_PROC`
+- `_reuse_current`: Will use the configuration of the running kernel, if the running kernel is compiled with `IKCONFIG_PROC`
-- `_optimize_defconfig`: Applies package maintainer-picked configuration changes to your defconfig. Only takes effect with `_use_current` being enabled
+- `_reuse_file`: Will use the configuration file named `kconfig` contained in the `PKGBUILD` file's directory
+- `_update_kconfig_on_reuse`: Specifies whether the kernel configuration shall be updated when using any of the '_reuse_*' flags
 - `_copyfinalconfig`: Copies the final kernel configuration into the repository root as `kconfig-new` before compilation starts
 - `_localmodcfg`: Only compiles modules found in modprobed-db's database (which decreases compilation time and kernel size)
 - `_use_llvm_lto`: Compiles the kernel with LLVM instead of GCC. Should work, if not open an issue

 ## License
 This package does not yet have a license as the original repository (before [me](https://git.staropensource.de/JeremyStarTM) becoming it's maintainer) did not have one yet.
 I have contacted [metak](https://aur.archlinux.org/account/metak) (the previous maintainer) to negotiate a license.
