Big source code files (wfm.sh has 1656 lines as of now) should be avoided and split into smaller files.

The mentioned script wfm.sh does multiple tasks (install, uninstal,...) that are run individually. Each of these tasks could be on a separate file that could even be called without going through the main command. Becoming subcommands that can also be invoked as independent commands.

Rational

Big raises the bar for new contributors to get into the source code. It also makes hard for every developer to find source code parts that they are looking for. As a consequence analyzing, editing, fixing,... the source code becomes harder and harder.

@Silvanoc, yes, this script started simple and then got a life of its own growing into a Godzilla proportions.
We will re-factor and document.

I can understand that these things grow organically. And when you've grown up in the project on pace with these things, you don't realize how huge they become until a newcomer tells you 😄 That's the intention of this issue, giving you that feedback from a newcomer.
