Hey there Nirewn! I just found this gist and was wondering how and where to use this. I'm currently working on a bot with Eris and found it lacking features from discord.js. Can you help?

@TMUniversal when I was using Eris I made this snippet to include some features d.js had. I just simply put them in a function and called it upon the bot's start. Later I rewrote my code using d.js so I never updated this. It still has some cool features like Array.truncate() and String.truncate() to trim the string and arrays to a limit and add a "..." at the end. And also Number.range() which is useful to create an Array with a starting number to an end number with steps.
