Also, do y'all call main() in the if block or do you just put the code you want to run in the if block?

It is normal usage. Though personally I'd probably make another "main" function, to avoid declaring a bunch of global variables

Yeah. I like using main() that way too. It's usually just a high-level function that handles globals relevant to running in standalone and calling other functions to do work.
