    matches=(
        $dname/$pdir/init.zsh(N) $dname/${pdir}.plugin.zsh(N)
        $dname/${pdir}.zsh-theme(N) $dname/${pdir}.theme.zsh(N)
        $dname/${pdir}.zshplugin(N) $dname/${pdir}.zsh.plugin(N)
        $dname/*.plugin.zsh(N) $dname/*.zsh(N) $dname/*.sh(N)
    )
    [ "$#matches" -eq "0" ] && return 1
    local fname="${matches[1]#$dname/}"

That's how things are done currently. This is based on what zgen
checks for, but done better, I quess, in single line. So, to create a
plugin, a directory with e.g. "directoryname.plugin.zsh" is needed,
and then it can do autoloads and setopts, etc. Zplugin does more than
just sourcing, tracks e.g. the setopts, to report them and also to
allow unloading, with options restoration.
