HELIX EDITOR FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Soc Virnyl Estela <socvirnyl.estela@gmail.com>
This is a small document that explains how to run/use helix.
Because of the limitations of cargo-packaging in openSUSE Build Service,
we have to resort on some workarounds before running helix.

THE NAME OF THE LAUNCHER BINARY
The launcher binary is renamed as 'helix', alias hx='helix' if you were using 'hx'.
BEFORE RUNNING HELIX
Helix needs its runtime files so make sure to copy/symlink the runtime/ directory
into the config directory (for example ~/.config/helix/runtime).If you see an error when
launching helix, copy the runtime directory.
Runtime directory is found in '/usr/lib64/helix/runtime'.
FETCHING AND BUILDING GRAMMARS
Run 'helix --grammar fetch' then 'helix --grammar build' to install the grammars.
To customize language-specific settings, you can copy '/usr/share/doc/packages/helix/languages.toml'
to '~/.helix/' or '~/.config/helix'.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you see an error when launching helix for the first time, it might be
because you did not copy the runtime directory.
