Globals

libretroshare uses lots of globals. Document them here.

RsControl* rsicontrol;

Class for starting up and shutting down RS. Does very little else.

Has some Configuration Functionality which will eventually be moved to rsConfig.

RsIface* rsiface;

Old Interface, Try not to use it externally. But probably required to get libretroshare running.

Requires calling lockData() and unlockData() before accessing data.

Main thing it is used for is some configuration options. This functionality will be moved to rsConfig.
