</ul>
<p>Requirements:</p>
<p>Clone the Helix GitHub repository into a directory of your choice. The
examples in this documentation assume installation into either <code>~/src/</code> on
Linux and macOS, or <code>%userprofile%\src\</code> on Windows.</p>
<ul>
<li>The <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install">Rust toolchain</a></li>
<li>The <a href="https://git-scm.com/">Git version control system</a></li>
<li>A C++14 compatible compiler to build the tree-sitter grammars, for example GCC or Clang</li>
</ul>
<p>If you are using the <code>musl-libc</code> standard library instead of <code>glibc</code> the following environment variable must be set during the build to ensure tree-sitter grammars can be loaded correctly:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=-crt-static"
</code></pre>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Clone the repository:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">git clone https://github.com/helix-editor/helix
cd helix
</code></pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>Compile from source:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">cargo install --path helix-term --locked
</code></pre>
<p>This command will create the <code>hx</code> executable and construct the tree-sitter
grammars in the local <code>runtime</code> folder.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 If you do not want to fetch or build grammars, set an environment variable <code>HELIX_DISABLE_AUTO_GRAMMAR_BUILD</code></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 Tree-sitter grammars can be fetched and compiled if not pre-packaged. Fetch
grammars with <code>hx --grammar fetch</code> and compile them with
<code>hx --grammar build</code>. This will install them in
the <code>runtime</code> directory within the user's helix config directory (more
<a href="#multiple-runtime-directories">details below</a>).</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="configuring-helixs-runtime-files"><a class="header" href="#configuring-helixs-runtime-files">Configuring Helix's runtime files</a></h3>
<h4 id="linux-and-macos"><a class="header" href="#linux-and-macos">Linux and macOS</a></h4>
<p>The <strong>runtime</strong> directory is one below the Helix source, so either export a
<code>HELIX_RUNTIME</code> environment variable to point to that directory and add it to
your <code>~/.bashrc</code> or equivalent:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">export HELIX_RUNTIME=~/src/helix/runtime
</code></pre>
<p>Or, create a symbolic link:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">ln -Ts $PWD/runtime ~/.config/helix/runtime
</code></pre>
<p>If the above command fails to create a symbolic link because the file exists either move <code>~/.config/helix/runtime</code> to a new location or delete it, then run the symlink command above again.</p>
<h4 id="windows"><a class="header" href="#windows">Windows</a></h4>
<p>Either set the <code>HELIX_RUNTIME</code> environment variable to point to the runtime files using the Windows setting (search for
<code>Edit environment variables for your account</code>) or use the <code>setx</code> command in
Cmd:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">setx HELIX_RUNTIME "%userprofile%\source\repos\helix\runtime"
</code></pre>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 <code>%userprofile%</code> resolves to your user directory like
<code>C:\Users\Your-Name\</code> for example.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Or, create a symlink in <code>%appdata%\helix\</code> that links to the source code directory:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Method</th><th>Command</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td>PowerShell</td><td><code>New-Item -ItemType Junction -Target "runtime" -Path "$Env:AppData\helix\runtime"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Cmd</td><td><code>cd %appdata%\helix</code> <br/> <code>mklink /D runtime "%userprofile%\src\helix\runtime"</code></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 On Windows, creating a symbolic link may require running PowerShell or
Cmd as an administrator.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4 id="multiple-runtime-directories"><a class="header" href="#multiple-runtime-directories">Multiple runtime directories</a></h4>
<p>When Helix finds multiple runtime directories it will search through them for files in the
following order:</p>
<ol>
<li><code>runtime/</code> sibling directory to <code>$CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR</code> directory (this is intended for
developing and testing helix only).</li>
<li><code>runtime/</code> subdirectory of OS-dependent helix user config directory.</li>
<li><code>$HELIX_RUNTIME</code></li>
<li>Distribution-specific fallback directory (set at compile time—not run time—
with the <code>HELIX_DEFAULT_RUNTIME</code> environment variable)</li>
<li><code>runtime/</code> subdirectory of path to Helix executable.</li>
</ol>
<p>This order also sets the priority for selecting which file will be used if multiple runtime
directories have files with the same name.</p>
<h4 id="note-to-packagers"><a class="header" href="#note-to-packagers">Note to packagers</a></h4>
<p>If you are making a package of Helix for end users, to provide a good out of
the box experience, you should set the <code>HELIX_DEFAULT_RUNTIME</code> environment
variable at build time (before invoking <code>cargo build</code>) to a directory which
will store the final runtime files after installation. For example, say you want
to package the runtime into <code>/usr/lib/helix/runtime</code>. The rough steps a build
script could follow are:</p>
<ol>
<li><code>export HELIX_DEFAULT_RUNTIME=/usr/lib/helix/runtime</code></li>
<li><code>cargo build --profile opt --locked --path helix-term</code></li>
<li><code>cp -r runtime $BUILD_DIR/usr/lib/helix/</code></li>
<li><code>cp target/opt/hx $BUILD_DIR/usr/bin/hx</code></li>
</ol>
<p>This way the resulting <code>hx</code> binary will always look for its runtime directory in
<code>/usr/lib/helix/runtime</code> if the user has no custom runtime in <code>~/.config/helix</code>
or <code>HELIX_RUNTIME</code>.</p>
<h3 id="validating-the-installation"><a class="header" href="#validating-the-installation">Validating the installation</a></h3>
<p>To make sure everything is set up as expected you should run the Helix health
check:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">hx --health
</code></pre>
<p>For more information on the health check results refer to
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Healthcheck">Health check</a>.</p>
<h3 id="configure-the-desktop-shortcut"><a class="header" href="#configure-the-desktop-shortcut">Configure the desktop shortcut</a></h3>
<p>If your desktop environment supports the
<a href="https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-latest.html">XDG desktop menu</a>
you can configure Helix to show up in the application menu by copying the
provided <code>.desktop</code> and icon files to their correct folders:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">cp contrib/Helix.desktop ~/.local/share/applications
cp contrib/helix.png ~/.icons # or ~/.local/share/icons
</code></pre>
<p>It is recommended to convert the links in the <code>.desktop</code> file to absolute paths to avoid potential problems:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">sed -i -e "s|Exec=hx %F|Exec=$(readlink -f ~/.cargo/bin/hx) %F|g" \
-e "s|Icon=helix|Icon=$(readlink -f ~/.icons/helix.png)|g" ~/.local/share/applications/Helix.desktop
</code></pre>
<p>To use another terminal than the system default, you can modify the <code>.desktop</code>
file. For example, to use <code>kitty</code>:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">sed -i "s|Exec=hx %F|Exec=kitty hx %F|g" ~/.local/share/applications/Helix.desktop
sed -i "s|Terminal=true|Terminal=false|g" ~/.local/share/applications/Helix.desktop
</code></pre>

<p>To override global configuration parameters, create a <code>config.toml</code> file located in your config directory:</p>
<ul>
<li>Linux and Mac: <code>~/.config/helix/config.toml</code></li>
<li>Windows: <code>%AppData%\helix\config.toml</code></li>
</ul>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 You can easily open the config file by typing <code>:config-open</code> within Helix normal mode.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Example config:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">theme = "onedark"
[editor]
line-number = "relative"
mouse = false
[editor.cursor-shape]
insert = "bar"
normal = "block"
select = "underline"
[editor.file-picker]
hidden = false
</code></pre>
<p>You can use a custom configuration file by specifying it with the <code>-c</code> or
<code>--config</code> command line argument, for example <code>hx -c path/to/custom-config.toml</code>.
Additionally, you can reload the configuration file by sending the USR1
signal to the Helix process on Unix operating systems, such as by using the command <code>pkill -USR1 hx</code>.</p>
<p>Finally, you can have a <code>config.toml</code> local to a project by putting it under a <code>.helix</code> directory in your repository.
Its settings will be merged with the configuration directory <code>config.toml</code> and the built-in configuration.</p>

copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
(an example is provided in the Appendix below).
"Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the

of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
"Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to

2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,

copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
as of the date such litigation is filed.
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
meet the following conditions:
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that You changed the files; and

that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
the Derivative Works; and

pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
as modifying the License.
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
the conditions stated in this License.
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade

except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any

whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

Copyright 2010, 2012 Adobe Systems Incorporated (http://www.adobe.com/), with Reserved Font Name 'Source'. All Rights Reserved. Source is a trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated in the United States and/or other countries.
This Font Software is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.
This license is copied below, and is also available with a FAQ at:

-----------------------------------------------------------
SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1 - 26 February 2007
-----------------------------------------------------------
PREAMBLE
The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide
development of collaborative font projects, to support the font creation
efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to provide a free and
open framework in which fonts may be shared and improved in partnership
with others.
The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and
redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The
fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded,
redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved
names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives,
however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The
requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply
to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.
DEFINITIONS
"Font Software" refers to the set of files released by the Copyright
Holder(s) under this license and clearly marked as such. This may
include source files, build scripts and documentation.
"Reserved Font Name" refers to any names specified as such after the
copyright statement(s).
"Original Version" refers to the collection of Font Software components as
distributed by the Copyright Holder(s).
"Modified Version" refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting,
or substituting -- in part or in whole -- any of the components of the
Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to a
new environment.
"Author" refers to any designer, engineer, programmer, technical
writer or other person who contributed to the Font Software.
PERMISSION & CONDITIONS
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining
a copy of the Font Software, to use, study, copy, merge, embed, modify,
redistribute, and sell modified and unmodified copies of the Font
Software, subject to the following conditions:
1) Neither the Font Software nor any of its individual components,
in Original or Modified Versions, may be sold by itself.
2) Original or Modified Versions of the Font Software may be bundled,
redistributed and/or sold with any software, provided that each copy
contains the above copyright notice and this license. These can be
included either as stand-alone text files, human-readable headers or
in the appropriate machine-readable metadata fields within text or
binary files as long as those fields can be easily viewed by the user.
3) No Modified Version of the Font Software may use the Reserved Font
Name(s) unless explicit written permission is granted by the corresponding
Copyright Holder. This restriction only applies to the primary font name as
presented to the users.
4) The name(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) or the Author(s) of the Font
Software shall not be used to promote, endorse or advertise any
Modified Version, except to acknowledge the contribution(s) of the
Copyright Holder(s) and the Author(s) or with their explicit written
permission.
5) The Font Software, modified or unmodified, in part or in whole,
must be distributed entirely under this license, and must not be
distributed under any other license. The requirement for fonts to
remain under this license does not apply to any document created
using the Font Software.
TERMINATION
This license becomes null and void if any of the above conditions are
not met.
DISCLAIMER
THE FONT SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT
OF COPYRIGHT, PATENT, TRADEMARK, OR OTHER RIGHT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
COPYRIGHT HOLDER BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY,
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING
FROM, OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE FONT SOFTWARE OR FROM
OTHER DEALINGS IN THE FONT SOFTWARE.

<p>Helix's editing model is strongly inspired from Vim and Kakoune, and a notable
difference from Vim (and the most striking similarity to Kakoune) is that Helix
follows the <code>selection → action</code> model. This means that whatever you are
going to act on (a word, a paragraph, a line, etc.) is selected first and the
action itself (delete, change, yank, etc.) comes second. A cursor is simply a
single width selection.</p>
<p>See also Kakoune's <a href="https://github.com/mawww/kakoune/wiki/Migrating-from-Vim">Migrating from Vim</a> and Helix's <a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Migrating-from-Vim">Migrating from Vim</a>.</p>

<h1 id="adding-new-languages-to-helix"><a class="header" href="#adding-new-languages-to-helix">Adding new languages to Helix</a></h1>
<p>In order to add a new language to Helix, you will need to follow the steps
below.</p>
<h2 id="language-configuration"><a class="header" href="#language-configuration">Language configuration</a></h2>
<ol>
<li>Add a new <code>[[language]]</code> entry in the <code>languages.toml</code> file and provide the
necessary configuration for the new language. For more information on
language configuration, refer to the
<a href="../languages.html">language configuration section</a> of the documentation.
A new language server can be added by extending the <code>[language-server]</code> table in the same file.</li>
<li>If you are adding a new language or updating an existing language server
configuration, run the command <code>cargo xtask docgen</code> to update the
<a href="../lang-support.html">Language Support</a> documentation.</li>
</ol>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 If you are adding a new Language Server configuration, make sure to update
the
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Language-Server-Configurations">Language Server Wiki</a>
with the installation instructions.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 id="grammar-configuration"><a class="header" href="#grammar-configuration">Grammar configuration</a></h2>
<ol>
<li>If a tree-sitter grammar is available for the new language, add a new
<code>[[grammar]]</code> entry to the <code>languages.toml</code> file.</li>
<li>If you are testing the grammar locally, you can use the <code>source.path</code> key
with an absolute path to the grammar. However, before submitting a pull
request, make sure to switch to using <code>source.git</code>.</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="queries"><a class="header" href="#queries">Queries</a></h2>
<ol>
<li>In order to provide syntax highlighting and indentation for the new language,
you will need to add queries.</li>
<li>Create a new directory for the language with the path
<code>runtime/queries/&lt;name&gt;/</code>.</li>
<li>Refer to the
<a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/syntax-highlighting#queries">tree-sitter website</a>
for more information on writing queries.</li>
<li>A list of highlight captures can be found <a href="https://docs.helix-editor.com/themes.html#scopes">on the themes page</a>.</li>
</ol>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 In Helix, the first matching query takes precedence when evaluating
queries, which is different from other editors such as Neovim where the last
matching query supersedes the ones before it. See
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/1170#issuecomment-997294090">this issue</a>
for an example.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 id="common-issues"><a class="header" href="#common-issues">Common issues</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>If you encounter errors when running Helix after switching branches, you may
need to update the tree-sitter grammars. Run the command <code>hx --grammar fetch</code>
to fetch the grammars and <code>hx --grammar build</code> to build any out-of-date
grammars.</li>
<li>If a parser is causing a segfault, or you want to remove it, make sure to
remove the compiled parser located at <code>runtime/grammars/&lt;name&gt;.so</code>.</li>
<li>If you are attempting to add queries and Helix is unable to locate them, ensure that the environment variable <code>HELIX_RUNTIME</code> is set to the location of the <code>runtime</code> folder you're developing in.</li>

<h1 id="adding-indent-queries"><a class="header" href="#adding-indent-queries">Adding indent queries</a></h1>
<p>Helix uses tree-sitter to correctly indent new lines. This requires a tree-
sitter grammar and an <code>indent.scm</code> query file placed in <code>runtime/queries/ {language}/indents.scm</code>. The indentation for a line is calculated by traversing
the syntax tree from the lowest node at the beginning of the new line (see
<a href="#indent-queries">Indent queries</a>). Each of these nodes contributes to the total
indent when it is captured by the query (in what way depends on the name of
the capture.</p>
<p>Note that it matters where these added indents begin. For example,
multiple indent level increases that start on the same line only increase
the total indent level by 1. See <a href="#capture-types">Capture types</a>.</p>
<p>By default, Helix uses the <code>hybrid</code> indentation heuristic. This means that
indent queries are not used to compute the expected absolute indentation of a
line but rather the expected difference in indentation between the new and an
already existing line. This difference is then added to the actual indentation
of the already existing line. Since this makes errors in the indent queries
harder to find, it is recommended to disable it when testing via
<code>:set indent-heuristic tree-sitter</code>. The rest of this guide assumes that
the <code>tree-sitter</code> heuristic is used.</p>
<h2 id="indent-queries"><a class="header" href="#indent-queries">Indent queries</a></h2>
<p>When Helix is inserting a new line through <code>o</code>, <code>O</code>, or <code>&lt;ret&gt;</code>, to determine
the indent level for the new line, the query in <code>indents.scm</code> is run on the
document. The starting position of the query is the end of the line above where
a new line will be inserted.</p>
<p>For <code>o</code>, the inserted line is the line below the cursor, so that starting
position of the query is the end of the current line.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust"><span class="boring">#![allow(unused)]
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {
</span>fn need_hero(some_hero: Hero, life: Life) -&gt; {

some_hero &gt; life
}
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre></pre>
<p>For <code>O</code>, the newly inserted line is the <em>current</em> line, so the starting position
of the query is the end of the line above the cursor.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust"><span class="boring">#![allow(unused)]
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {

<p>From this starting node, the syntax tree is traversed up until the root node.
Each indent capture is collected along the way, and then combined according to
their <a href="#capture-types">capture types</a> and <a href="#scopes">scopes</a> to a final indent
level for the line.</p>
<h3 id="capture-types"><a class="header" href="#capture-types">Capture types</a></h3>
<ul>
<li><code>@indent</code> (default scope <code>tail</code>):
Increase the indent level by 1. Multiple occurrences in the same line <em>do not</em>
stack. If there is at least one <code>@indent</code> and one <code>@outdent</code> capture on the
same line, the indent level isn't changed at all.</li>
<li><code>@outdent</code> (default scope <code>all</code>):
Decrease the indent level by 1. The same rules as for <code>@indent</code> apply.</li>
<li><code>@indent.always</code> (default scope <code>tail</code>):
Increase the indent level by 1. Multiple occurrences on the same line <em>do</em>
stack. The final indent level is <code>@indent.always</code> <code>@outdent.always</code>. If
an <code>@indent</code> and an <code>@indent.always</code> are on the same line, the <code>@indent</code> is
ignored.</li>
<li><code>@outdent.always</code> (default scope <code>all</code>):
Decrease the indent level by 1. The same rules as for <code>@indent.always</code> apply.</li>
<li><code>@align</code> (default scope <code>all</code>):
Align everything inside this node to some anchor. The anchor is given
by the start of the node captured by <code>@anchor</code> in the same pattern.
Every pattern with an <code>@align</code> should contain exactly one <code>@anchor</code>.
Indent (and outdent) for nodes below (in terms of their starting line)
the <code>@align</code> node is added to the indentation required for alignment.</li>
<li><code>@extend</code>:
Extend the range of this node to the end of the line and to lines that are
indented more than the line that this node starts on. This is useful for
languages like Python, where for the purpose of indentation some nodes (like
functions or classes) should also contain indented lines that follow them.</li>
<li><code>@extend.prevent-once</code>:
Prevents the first extension of an ancestor of this node. For example, in Python
a return expression always ends the block that it is in. Note that this only
stops the extension of the next <code>@extend</code> capture. If multiple ancestors are
captured, only the extension of the innermost one is prevented. All other
ancestors are unaffected (regardless of whether the innermost ancestor would
actually have been extended).</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="indent--outdent"><a class="header" href="#indent--outdent"><code>@indent</code> / <code>@outdent</code></a></h4>
<p>Consider this example:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust"><span class="boring">#![allow(unused)]
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {
</span>fn shout(things: Vec&lt;Thing&gt;) {

<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre></pre>
<pre><code class="language-scm">((block) @indent)
["}" ")"] @outdent
</code></pre>
<p>Note how on the second line, we have two blocks begin on the same line. In this
case, since both captures occur on the same line, they are combined and only
result in a net increase of 1. Also note that the closing <code>}</code>s are part of the
<code>@indent</code> captures, but the 3 <code>@outdent</code>s also combine into 1 and result in that
line losing one indent level.</p>
<h4 id="extend--extendprevent-once"><a class="header" href="#extend--extendprevent-once"><code>@extend</code> / <code>@extend.prevent-once</code></a></h4>
<p>For an example of where <code>@extend</code> can be useful, consider Python, which is
whitespace-sensitive.</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">]
(parenthesized_expression)

<pre><code class="language-python">class Hero:
def __init__(self, strong, fast, sure, soon):# ←─╮

<p>Without braces to catch the scope of the function, the smallest descendant of
the cursor on a line feed ends up being the entire inside of the class. Because
of this, it will miss the entire function node and its indent capture, leading
to an indent level one too small.</p>
<p>To address this case, <code>@extend</code> tells helix to "extend" the captured node's span
to the line feed and every consecutive line that has a greater indent level than
the line of the node.</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">(parenthesized_expression) @indent

return (
self.is_strong

)
</code></pre>
<p>Furthermore, there are some cases where extending to everything with a greater
indent level may not be desirable. Consider the <code>need_hero</code> function above. If
our cursor is on the last line of the returned expression.</p>
<pre><code class="language-python">class Hero:
def __init__(self, strong, fast, sure, soon):
self.is_strong = strong
self.is_fast = fast
self.is_sure = sure
self.is_soon = soon
def need_hero(self, life):
return (
self.is_strong
and self.is_fast
and self.is_sure
and self.is_soon
and self &gt; life
) # ←─── cursor
#←────────── where cursor should go on new line
</code></pre>
<p>In Python, the are a few tokens that will always end a scope, such as a return
statement. Since the scope ends, so should the indent level. But because the
function span is extended to every line with a greater indent level, a new line
would just continue on the same level. And an <code>@outdent</code> would not help us here
either, since it would cause everything in the parentheses to become outdented
as well.</p>
<p>To help, we need to signal an end to the extension. We can do this with
<code>@extend.prevent-once</code>.</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">(parenthesized_expression) @indent
]
(function_definition)
(class_definition)
] @indent @extend
(return_statement) @extend.prevent-once
</code></pre>
<h4 id="indentalways--outdentalways"><a class="header" href="#indentalways--outdentalways"><code>@indent.always</code> / <code>@outdent.always</code></a></h4>
<p>As mentioned before, normally if there is more than one <code>@indent</code> or <code>@outdent</code>
capture on the same line, they are combined.</p>
<p>Sometimes, there are cases when you may want to ensure that every indent capture
is additive, regardless of how many occur on the same line. Consider this
example in YAML.</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml"> - foo: bar
# ↑ ↑
# │ ╰─────────────── start of map
# ╰───────────────── start of list element
baz: quux # ←─── cursor
# ←───────────── where the cursor should go on a new line
garply: waldo
- quux:
bar: baz
xyzzy: thud
fred: plugh
</code></pre>
<p>In YAML, you often have lists of maps. In these cases, the syntax is such that
the list element and the map both start on the same line. But we really do want
to start an indentation for each of these so that subsequent keys in the map
hang over the list and align properly. This is where <code>@indent.always</code> helps.</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">((block_sequence_item) @item @indent.always @extend
(#not-one-line? @item))
((block_mapping_pair
key: (_) @key
value: (_) @val
(#not-same-line? @key @val)
) @indent.always @extend
)
</code></pre>
<h2 id="predicates"><a class="header" href="#predicates">Predicates</a></h2>
<p>In some cases, an S-expression cannot express exactly what pattern should be matched.
For that, tree-sitter allows for predicates to appear anywhere within a pattern,
similar to how <code>#set!</code> declarations work:</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">(some_kind
(child_kind) @indent
(#predicate? arg1 arg2 ...)
)
</code></pre>
<p>The number of arguments depends on the predicate that's used.
Each argument is either a capture (<code>@name</code>) or a string (<code>"some string"</code>).
The following predicates are supported by tree-sitter:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>#eq?</code>/<code>#not-eq?</code>:
The first argument (a capture) must/must not be equal to the second argument
(a capture or a string).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#match?</code>/<code>#not-match?</code>:
The first argument (a capture) must/must not match the regex given in the
second argument (a string).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#any-of?</code>/<code>#not-any-of?</code>:
The first argument (a capture) must/must not be one of the other arguments
(strings).</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Additionally, we support some custom predicates for indent queries:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>#not-kind-eq?</code>:
The kind of the first argument (a capture) must not be equal to the second
argument (a string).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#same-line?</code>/<code>#not-same-line?</code>:
The captures given by the 2 arguments must/must not start on the same line.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#one-line?</code>/<code>#not-one-line?</code>:
The captures given by the fist argument must/must span a total of one line.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="scopes"><a class="header" href="#scopes">Scopes</a></h3>
<p>Added indents don't always apply to the whole node. For example, in most
cases when a node should be indented, we actually only want everything
except for its first line to be indented. For this, there are several
scopes (more scopes may be added in the future if required):</p>
<ul>
<li><code>tail</code>:
This scope applies to everything except for the first line of the
captured node.</li>
<li><code>all</code>:
This scope applies to the whole captured node. This is only different from
<code>tail</code> when the captured node is the first node on its line.</li>
</ul>
<p>For example, imagine we have the following function</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust"><span class="boring">#![allow(unused)]
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {
</span>fn aha() { // ←─────────────────────────────────────╮
let take = "on me"; // ←──────────────╮ scope: │
let take = "me on"; // ├─ "tail" ├─ (block) @indent
let ill = be_gone_days(1 || 2); // │ │
} // ←───────────────────────────────────┴──────────┴─ "}" @outdent
// scope: "all"
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre></pre>
<p>We can write the following query with the <code>#set!</code> declaration:</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">((block) @indent
(#set! "scope" "tail"))
("}" @outdent
(#set! "scope" "all"))
</code></pre>
<p>As we can see, the "tail" scope covers the node, except for the first line.
Everything up to and including the closing brace gets an indent level of 1.
Then, on the closing brace, we encounter an outdent with a scope of "all", which
means the first line is included, and the indent level is cancelled out on this
line. (Note these scopes are the defaults for <code>@indent</code> and <code>@outdent</code>—they are
written explicitly for demonstration.)</p>

<p>Writing language injection queries allows one to highlight a specific node as a different language.
In addition to the <a href="http://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/syntax-highlighting#language-injection">standard</a> language injection options used by tree-sitter, there
are a few Helix specific extensions that allow for more control.</p>
<p>And example of a simple query that would highlight all strings as bash in Nix:</p>
<pre><code class="language-scm">((string_expression (string_fragment) @injection.content)
(#set! injection.language "bash"))
</code></pre>
<h2 id="capture-types"><a class="header" href="#capture-types">Capture Types</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>@injection.language</code> (standard):
The captured node may contain the language name used to highlight the node captured by
<code>@injection.content</code>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>@injection.content</code> (standard):
Marks the content to be highlighted as the language captured with <code>@injection.language</code> <em>et al</em>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>@injection.filename</code> (extension):
The captured node may contain a filename with a file-extension known to Helix,
highlighting <code>@injection.content</code> as that language. This uses the language extensions defined in
both the default languages.toml distributed with Helix, as well as user defined languages.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>@injection.shebang</code> (extension):
The captured node may contain a shebang used to choose a language to highlight as. This also uses
the shebangs defined in the default and user <code>languages.toml</code>.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="settings"><a class="header" href="#settings">Settings</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>injection.combined</code> (standard):
Indicates that all the matching nodes in the tree should have their content parsed as one
nested document.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>injection.language</code> (standard):
Forces the captured content to be highlighted as the given language</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>injection.include-children</code> (standard):
Indicates that the content nodes entire text should be re-parsed, including the text of its child
nodes. By default, child nodes text will be excluded from the injected document.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>injection.include-unnamed-children</code> (extension):
Same as <code>injection.include-children</code> but only for unnamed child nodes.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="predicates"><a class="header" href="#predicates">Predicates</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>#eq?</code> (standard):
The first argument (a capture) must be equal to the second argument
(a capture or a string).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#match?</code> (standard):
The first argument (a capture) must match the regex given in the
second argument (a string).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>#any-of?</code> (standard):
The first argument (a capture) must be one of the other arguments (strings).</p>

<h1 id="adding-textobject-queries"><a class="header" href="#adding-textobject-queries">Adding textobject queries</a></h1>
<p>Helix supports textobjects that are language specific, such as functions, classes, etc.
These textobjects require an accompanying tree-sitter grammar and a <code>textobjects.scm</code> query file
to work properly. Tree-sitter allows us to query the source code syntax tree
and capture specific parts of it. The queries are written in a lisp dialect.
More information on how to write queries can be found in the <a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/using-parsers#query-syntax">official tree-sitter
documentation</a>.</p>
<p>Query files should be placed in <code>runtime/queries/{language}/textobjects.scm</code>
when contributing to Helix. Note that to test the query files locally you should put
them under your local runtime directory (<code>~/.config/helix/runtime</code> on Linux
for example).</p>
<p>The following <a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/using-parsers#capturing-nodes">captures</a> are recognized:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Capture Name</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>function.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>function.around</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>class.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>class.around</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>test.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>test.around</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>parameter.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>comment.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>comment.around</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>entry.inside</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>entry.around</code></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p><a href="https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Ahelix-editor%2Fhelix+path%3A%2A%2A/textobjects.scm&amp;type=Code&amp;ref=advsearch&amp;l=&amp;l=">Example query files</a> can be found in the helix GitHub repository.</p>
<h2 id="queries-for-textobject-based-navigation"><a class="header" href="#queries-for-textobject-based-navigation">Queries for textobject based navigation</a></h2>
<p>Tree-sitter based navigation in Helix is done using captures in the
following order:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>object.movement</code></li>
<li><code>object.around</code></li>
<li><code>object.inside</code></li>
</ul>
<p>For example if a <code>function.around</code> capture has been already defined for a language
in its <code>textobjects.scm</code> file, function navigation should also work automatically.
<code>function.movement</code> should be defined only if the node captured by <code>function.around</code>
doesn't make sense in a navigation context.</p>

<p>To install Helix, follow the instructions specific to your operating system.
Note that:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>To get the latest nightly version of Helix, you need to
<a href="./building-from-source.html">build from source</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>To take full advantage of Helix, install the language servers for your
preferred programming languages. See the
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/How-to-install-the-default-language-servers">wiki</a>
for instructions.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="pre-built-binaries"><a class="header" href="#pre-built-binaries">Pre-built binaries</a></h2>
<p>Download pre-built binaries from the <a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/releases">GitHub Releases page</a>.
Add the <code>hx</code> binary to your system's <code>$PATH</code> to use it from the command line, and copy the <code>runtime</code> directory into the config directory (for example <code>~/.config/helix/runtime</code> on Linux/macOS).
The runtime location can be overriden via the HELIX_RUNTIME environment variable.</p>

<p>Select mode echoes Normal mode, but changes any movements to extend
selections rather than replace them. Goto motions are also changed to
extend, so that <code>vgl</code>, for example, extends the selection to the end of
the line.</p>
<p>Search is also affected. By default, <code>n</code> and <code>N</code> will remove the current
selection and select the next instance of the search term. Toggling this
mode before pressing <code>n</code> or <code>N</code> makes it possible to keep the current
selection. Toggling it on and off during your iterative searching allows
you to selectively add search terms to your selections.</p>

<h1 id="languages"><a class="header" href="#languages">Languages</a></h1>
<p>Language-specific settings and settings for language servers are configured
in <code>languages.toml</code> files.</p>
<h2 id="languagestoml-files"><a class="header" href="#languagestoml-files"><code>languages.toml</code> files</a></h2>
<p>There are three possible locations for a <code>languages.toml</code> file:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>In the Helix source code, which lives in the
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/languages.toml">Helix repository</a>.
It provides the default configurations for languages and language servers.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In your <a href="./configuration.html">configuration directory</a>. This overrides values
from the built-in language configuration. For example, to disable
auto-LSP-formatting in Rust:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml"># in &lt;config_dir&gt;/helix/languages.toml
[language-server.mylang-lsp]
command = "mylang-lsp"
[[language]]
name = "rust"
auto-format = false
</code></pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>In a <code>.helix</code> folder in your project. Language configuration may also be
overridden local to a project by creating a <code>languages.toml</code> file in a
<code>.helix</code> folder. Its settings will be merged with the language configuration
in the configuration directory and the built-in configuration.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="language-configuration"><a class="header" href="#language-configuration">Language configuration</a></h2>
<p>Each language is configured by adding a <code>[[language]]</code> section to a
<code>languages.toml</code> file. For example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[[language]]
name = "mylang"
scope = "source.mylang"
injection-regex = "mylang"
file-types = ["mylang", "myl"]
comment-tokens = "#"
indent = { tab-width = 2, unit = " " }
formatter = { command = "mylang-formatter" , args = ["--stdin"] }
language-servers = [ "mylang-lsp" ]
</code></pre>
<p>These configuration keys are available:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>name</code></td><td>The name of the language</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>language-id</code></td><td>The language-id for language servers, checkout the table at <a href="https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#textDocumentItem">TextDocumentItem</a> for the right id</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>scope</code></td><td>A string like <code>source.js</code> that identifies the language. Currently, we strive to match the scope names used by popular TextMate grammars and by the Linguist library. Usually <code>source.&lt;name&gt;</code> or <code>text.&lt;name&gt;</code> in case of markup languages</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>injection-regex</code></td><td>regex pattern that will be tested against a language name in order to determine whether this language should be used for a potential <a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/syntax-highlighting#language-injection">language injection</a> site.</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>file-types</code></td><td>The filetypes of the language, for example <code>["yml", "yaml"]</code>. See the file-type detection section below.</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>shebangs</code></td><td>The interpreters from the shebang line, for example <code>["sh", "bash"]</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>roots</code></td><td>A set of marker files to look for when trying to find the workspace root. For example <code>Cargo.lock</code>, <code>yarn.lock</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>auto-format</code></td><td>Whether to autoformat this language when saving</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>diagnostic-severity</code></td><td>Minimal severity of diagnostic for it to be displayed. (Allowed values: <code>Error</code>, <code>Warning</code>, <code>Info</code>, <code>Hint</code>)</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>comment-tokens</code></td><td>The tokens to use as a comment token, either a single token <code>"//"</code> or an array <code>["//", "///", "//!"]</code> (the first token will be used for commenting). Also configurable as <code>comment-token</code> for backwards compatibility</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>block-comment-tokens</code></td><td>The start and end tokens for a multiline comment either an array or single table of <code>{ start = "/*", end = "*/"}</code>. The first set of tokens will be used for commenting, any pairs in the array can be uncommented</td></tr>

<h3 id="file-type-detection-and-the-file-types-key"><a class="header" href="#file-type-detection-and-the-file-types-key">File-type detection and the <code>file-types</code> key</a></h3>
<p>Helix determines which language configuration to use based on the <code>file-types</code> key
from the above section. <code>file-types</code> is a list of strings or tables, for
example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">file-types = ["toml", { glob = "Makefile" }, { glob = ".git/config" }, { glob = ".github/workflows/*.yaml" } ]
</code></pre>
<p>When determining a language configuration to use, Helix searches the file-types
with the following priorities:</p>
<ol>
<li>Glob: values in <code>glob</code> tables are checked against the full path of the given
file. Globs are standard Unix-style path globs (e.g. the kind you use in Shell)
and can be used to match paths for a specific prefix, suffix, directory, etc.
In the above example, the <code>{ glob = "Makefile" }</code> config would match files
with the name <code>Makefile</code>, the <code>{ glob = ".git/config" }</code> config would match
<code>config</code> files in <code>.git</code> directories, and the <code>{ glob = ".github/workflows/*.yaml" }</code>
config would match any <code>yaml</code> files in <code>.github/workflow</code> directories. Note
that globs should always use the Unix path separator <code>/</code> even on Windows systems;
the matcher will automatically take the machine-specific separators into account.
If the glob isn't an absolute path or doesn't already start with a glob prefix,
<code>*/</code> will automatically be added to ensure it matches for any subdirectory.</li>
<li>Extension: if there are no glob matches, any <code>file-types</code> string that matches
the file extension of a given file wins. In the example above, the <code>"toml"</code>
config matches files like <code>Cargo.toml</code> or <code>languages.toml</code>.</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="language-server-configuration"><a class="header" href="#language-server-configuration">Language Server configuration</a></h2>
<p>Language servers are configured separately in the table <code>language-server</code> in the same file as the languages <code>languages.toml</code></p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[language-server.mylang-lsp]
command = "mylang-lsp"
args = ["--stdio"]
config = { provideFormatter = true }
environment = { "ENV1" = "value1", "ENV2" = "value2" }
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier]
command = "efm-langserver"
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier.config]
documentFormatting = true
languages = { typescript = [ { formatCommand ="prettier --stdin-filepath ${INPUT}", formatStdin = true } ] }
</code></pre>
<p>These are the available options for a language server.</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>command</code></td><td>The name or path of the language server binary to execute. Binaries must be in <code>$PATH</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>args</code></td><td>A list of arguments to pass to the language server binary</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>config</code></td><td>LSP initialization options</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>timeout</code></td><td>The maximum time a request to the language server may take, in seconds. Defaults to <code>20</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>environment</code></td><td>Any environment variables that will be used when starting the language server <code>{ "KEY1" = "Value1", "KEY2" = "Value2" }</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>required-root-patterns</code></td><td>A list of <code>glob</code> patterns to look for in the working directory. The language server is started if at least one of them is found.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p>A <code>format</code> sub-table within <code>config</code> can be used to pass extra formatting options to
<a href="https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#textDocument_formatting">Document Formatting Requests</a>.
For example, with typescript:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[language-server.typescript-language-server]
# pass format options according to https://github.com/typescript-language-server/typescript-language-server#workspacedidchangeconfiguration omitting the "[language].format." prefix.
config = { format = { "semicolons" = "insert", "insertSpaceBeforeFunctionParenthesis" = true } }
</code></pre>
<h3 id="configuring-language-servers-for-a-language"><a class="header" href="#configuring-language-servers-for-a-language">Configuring Language Servers for a language</a></h3>
<p>The <code>language-servers</code> attribute in a language tells helix which language servers are used for this language.</p>
<p>They have to be defined in the <code>[language-server]</code> table as described in the previous section.</p>
<p>Different languages can use the same language server instance, e.g. <code>typescript-language-server</code> is used for javascript, jsx, tsx and typescript by default.</p>
<p>The definition order of language servers affects the order in the results list of code action menu.</p>
<p>In case multiple language servers are specified in the <code>language-servers</code> attribute of a <code>language</code>,
it's often useful to only enable/disable certain language-server features for these language servers.</p>
<p>As an example, <code>efm-lsp-prettier</code> of the previous example is used only with a formatting command <code>prettier</code>,
so everything else should be handled by the <code>typescript-language-server</code> (which is configured by default).
The language configuration for typescript could look like this:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "efm-lsp-prettier", only-features = [ "format" ] }, "typescript-language-server" ]
</code></pre>
<p>or equivalent:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "typescript-language-server", except-features = [ "format" ] }, "efm-lsp-prettier" ]
</code></pre>
<p>Each requested LSP feature is prioritized in the order of the <code>language-servers</code> array.
For example, the first <code>goto-definition</code> supported language server (in this case <code>typescript-language-server</code>) will be taken for the relevant LSP request (command <code>goto_definition</code>).
The features <code>diagnostics</code>, <code>code-action</code>, <code>completion</code>, <code>document-symbols</code> and <code>workspace-symbols</code> are an exception to that rule, as they are working for all language servers at the same time and are merged together, if enabled for the language.
If no <code>except-features</code> or <code>only-features</code> is given, all features for the language server are enabled.
If a language server itself doesn't support a feature, the next language server array entry will be tried (and so on).</p>
<p>The list of supported features is:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>format</code></li>
<li><code>goto-definition</code></li>
<li><code>goto-declaration</code></li>
<li><code>goto-type-definition</code></li>
<li><code>goto-reference</code></li>
<li><code>goto-implementation</code></li>
<li><code>signature-help</code></li>
<li><code>hover</code></li>
<li><code>document-highlight</code></li>
<li><code>completion</code></li>
<li><code>code-action</code></li>
<li><code>workspace-command</code></li>
<li><code>document-symbols</code></li>
<li><code>workspace-symbols</code></li>
<li><code>diagnostics</code></li>
<li><code>rename-symbol</code></li>
<li><code>inlay-hints</code></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="tree-sitter-grammar-configuration"><a class="header" href="#tree-sitter-grammar-configuration">Tree-sitter grammar configuration</a></h2>
<p>The source for a language's tree-sitter grammar is specified in a <code>[[grammar]]</code>
section in <code>languages.toml</code>. For example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[[grammar]]
name = "mylang"
source = { git = "https://github.com/example/mylang", rev = "a250c4582510ff34767ec3b7dcdd3c24e8c8aa68" }
</code></pre>
<p>Grammar configuration takes these keys:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>name</code></td><td>The name of the tree-sitter grammar</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>source</code></td><td>The method of fetching the grammar - a table with a schema defined below</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p>Where <code>source</code> is a table with either these keys when using a grammar from a
git repository:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>git</code></td><td>A git remote URL from which the grammar should be cloned</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>rev</code></td><td>The revision (commit hash or tag) which should be fetched</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>subpath</code></td><td>A path within the grammar directory which should be built. Some grammar repositories host multiple grammars (for example <code>tree-sitter-typescript</code> and <code>tree-sitter-ocaml</code>) in subdirectories. This key is used to point <code>hx --grammar build</code> to the correct path for compilation. When omitted, the root of repository is used</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<h3 id="choosing-grammars"><a class="header" href="#choosing-grammars">Choosing grammars</a></h3>
<p>You may use a top-level <code>use-grammars</code> key to control which grammars are
fetched and built when using <code>hx --grammar fetch</code> and <code>hx --grammar build</code>.</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml"># Note: this key must come **before** the [[language]] and [[grammar]] sections
use-grammars = { only = [ "rust", "c", "cpp" ] }
# or

<p>The following third party repositories are available:</p>
<h3 id="ubuntu"><a class="header" href="#ubuntu">Ubuntu</a></h3>
<p>Add the <code>PPA</code> for Helix:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">sudo add-apt-repository ppa:maveonair/helix-editor
sudo apt update
sudo apt install helix
</code></pre>
<h3 id="fedorarhel"><a class="header" href="#fedorarhel">Fedora/RHEL</a></h3>
<pre><code class="language-sh">sudo dnf install helix
</code></pre>
<h3 id="arch-linux-extra"><a class="header" href="#arch-linux-extra">Arch Linux extra</a></h3>
<p>Releases are available in the <code>extra</code> repository:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">sudo pacman -S helix
</code></pre>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 When installed from the <code>extra</code> repository, run Helix with <code>helix</code> instead of <code>hx</code>.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">helix --health
</code></pre>
<p>to check health</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Additionally, a <a href="https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/helix-git/">helix-git</a> package is available

cached for each push to master using <a href="https://www.cachix.org/">Cachix</a>. The
flake is configured to automatically make use of this cache assuming the user
accepts the new settings on first use.</p>
<p>If you are using a version of Nix without flakes enabled,
<a href="https://docs.cachix.org/installation">install Cachix CLI</a> and use
<code>cachix use helix</code> to configure Nix to use cached outputs when possible.</p>

<p>In Helix, registers are storage locations for text and other data, such as the
result of a search. Registers can be used to cut, copy, and paste text, similar
to the clipboard in other text editors. Usage is similar to Vim, with <code>"</code> being
used to select a register.</p>
<h3 id="user-defined-registers"><a class="header" href="#user-defined-registers">User-defined registers</a></h3>
<p>Helix allows you to create your own named registers for storing text, for
example:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>"ay</code> - Yank the current selection to register <code>a</code>.</li>
<li><code>"op</code> - Paste the text in register <code>o</code> after the selection.</li>
</ul>
<p>If a register is selected before invoking a change or delete command, the selection will be stored in the register and the action will be carried out:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>"hc</code> - Store the selection in register <code>h</code> and then change it (delete and enter insert mode).</li>
<li><code>"md</code> - Store the selection in register <code>m</code> and delete it.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="default-registers"><a class="header" href="#default-registers">Default registers</a></h3>
<p>Commands that use registers, like yank (<code>y</code>), use a default register if none is specified.
These registers are used as defaults:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Register character</th><th>Contains</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>/</code></td><td>Last search</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>:</code></td><td>Last executed command</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>"</code></td><td>Last yanked text</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>@</code></td><td>Last recorded macro</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<h3 id="special-registers"><a class="header" href="#special-registers">Special registers</a></h3>
<p>Some registers have special behavior when read from and written to.</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Register character</th><th>When read</th><th>When written</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>_</code></td><td>No values are returned</td><td>All values are discarded</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>#</code></td><td>Selection indices (first selection is <code>1</code>, second is <code>2</code>, etc.)</td><td>This register is not writable</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>.</code></td><td>Contents of the current selections</td><td>This register is not writable</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>%</code></td><td>Name of the current file</td><td>This register is not writable</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>+</code></td><td>Reads from the system clipboard</td><td>Joins and yanks to the system clipboard</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>*</code></td><td>Reads from the primary clipboard</td><td>Joins and yanks to the primary clipboard</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p>When yanking multiple selections to the clipboard registers, the selections
are joined with newlines. Pasting from these registers will paste multiple
selections if the clipboard was last yanked to by the Helix session. Otherwise
the clipboard contents are pasted as one selection.</p>

<h1 id="key-remapping"><a class="header" href="#key-remapping">Key remapping</a></h1>
<p>Helix currently supports one-way key remapping through a simple TOML configuration
file. (More powerful solutions such as rebinding via commands will be
available in the future).</p>
<p>To remap keys, create a <code>config.toml</code> file in your <code>helix</code> configuration
directory (default <code>~/.config/helix</code> on Linux systems) with a structure like
this:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml"># At most one section each of 'keys.normal', 'keys.insert' and 'keys.select'
[keys.normal]
C-s = ":w" # Maps Ctrl-s to the typable command :w which is an alias for :write (save file)
C-o = ":open ~/.config/helix/config.toml" # Maps Ctrl-o to opening of the helix config file
a = "move_char_left" # Maps the 'a' key to the move_char_left command
w = "move_line_up" # Maps the 'w' key move_line_up
"C-S-esc" = "extend_line" # Maps Ctrl-Shift-Escape to extend_line
g = { a = "code_action" } # Maps `ga` to show possible code actions
"ret" = ["open_below", "normal_mode"] # Maps the enter key to open_below then re-enter normal mode
[keys.insert]
"A-x" = "normal_mode" # Maps Alt-X to enter normal mode
j = { k = "normal_mode" } # Maps `jk` to exit insert mode
</code></pre>
<h2 id="minor-modes"><a class="header" href="#minor-modes">Minor modes</a></h2>
<p>Minor modes are accessed by pressing a key (usually from normal mode), giving access to dedicated bindings. Bindings
can be modified or added by nesting definitions.</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[keys.insert.j]
k = "normal_mode" # Maps `jk` to exit insert mode
[keys.normal.g]
a = "code_action" # Maps `ga` to show possible code actions
# invert `j` and `k` in view mode
[keys.normal.z]
j = "scroll_up"
k = "scroll_down"
# create a new minor mode bound to `+`
[keys.normal."+"]
m = ":run-shell-command make"
c = ":run-shell-command cargo build"
t = ":run-shell-command cargo test"
</code></pre>
<h2 id="special-keys-and-modifiers"><a class="header" href="#special-keys-and-modifiers">Special keys and modifiers</a></h2>
<p>Ctrl, Shift and Alt modifiers are encoded respectively with the prefixes
<code>C-</code>, <code>S-</code> and <code>A-</code>. Special keys are encoded as follows:</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key name</th><th>Representation</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td>Backspace</td><td><code>"backspace"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Space</td><td><code>"space"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Return/Enter</td><td><code>"ret"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>-</td><td><code>"minus"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Left</td><td><code>"left"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Right</td><td><code>"right"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Up</td><td><code>"up"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Down</td><td><code>"down"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Home</td><td><code>"home"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>End</td><td><code>"end"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Page Up</td><td><code>"pageup"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Page Down</td><td><code>"pagedown"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Tab</td><td><code>"tab"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Delete</td><td><code>"del"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Insert</td><td><code>"ins"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Null</td><td><code>"null"</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>Escape</td><td><code>"esc"</code></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p>Keys can be disabled by binding them to the <code>no_op</code> command.</p>
<p>A list of commands is available in the <a href="https://docs.helix-editor.com/keymap.html">Keymap</a> documentation
and in the source code at <a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/helix-term/src/commands.rs"><code>helix-term/src/commands.rs</code></a> at the invocation of <code>static_commands!</code> macro and the <code>TypableCommandList</code>.</p>

<p>Helix includes built-in functionality similar to <a href="https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround">vim-surround</a>.
The keymappings have been inspired from <a href="https://github.com/machakann/vim-sandwich">vim-sandwich</a>:</p>
<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23398472/122865801-97073180-d344-11eb-8142-8f43809982c6.gif" alt="Surround demo" /></p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key Sequence</th><th>Action</th></tr></thead><tbody>
<tr><td><code>ms&lt;char&gt;</code> (after selecting text)</td><td>Add surround characters to selection</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>mr&lt;char_to_replace&gt;&lt;new_char&gt;</code></td><td>Replace the closest surround characters</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>md&lt;char_to_delete&gt;</code></td><td>Delete the closest surround characters</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<p>You can use counts to act on outer pairs.</p>
<p>Surround can also act on multiple selections. For example, to change every occurrence of <code>(use)</code> to <code>[use]</code>:</p>
<ol>
<li><code>%</code> to select the whole file</li>
<li><code>s</code> to split the selections on a search term</li>
<li>Input <code>use</code> and hit Enter</li>
<li><code>mr([</code> to replace the parentheses with square brackets</li>
</ol>
<p>Multiple characters are currently not supported, but planned for future release.</p>

<h2 id="moving-the-selection-with-syntax-aware-motions"><a class="header" href="#moving-the-selection-with-syntax-aware-motions">Moving the selection with syntax-aware motions</a></h2>
<p><code>Alt-p</code>, <code>Alt-o</code>, <code>Alt-i</code>, and <code>Alt-n</code> (or <code>Alt</code> and arrow keys) allow you to move the
selection according to its location in the syntax tree. For example, many languages have the
following syntax for function calls:</p>
<pre><code class="language-js">func(arg1, arg2, arg3);
</code></pre>
<p>A function call might be parsed by tree-sitter into a tree like the following.</p>
<pre><code class="language-tsq">(call
function: (identifier) ; func
arguments:
(arguments ; (arg1, arg2, arg3)
(identifier) ; arg1
(identifier) ; arg2
(identifier))) ; arg3
</code></pre>
<p>Use <code>:tree-sitter-subtree</code> to view the syntax tree of the primary selection. In
a more intuitive tree format:</p>
<pre><code> ┌────┐
│call│
┌─────┴────┴─────┐
│ │
┌─────▼────┐ ┌────▼────┐
│identifier│ │arguments│
│ "func" │ ┌────┴───┬─────┴───┐
└──────────┘ │ │ │
│ │ │
┌─────────▼┐ ┌────▼─────┐ ┌▼─────────┐
│identifier│ │identifier│ │identifier│
│ "arg1" │ │ "arg2" │ │ "arg3" │
└──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘
</code></pre>
<p>If you have a selection that wraps <code>arg1</code> (see the tree above), and you use
<code>Alt-n</code>, it will select the next sibling in the syntax tree: <code>arg2</code>.</p>
<pre><code class="language-js">// before
func([arg1], arg2, arg3)
// after
func(arg1, [arg2], arg3);
</code></pre>
<p>Similarly, <code>Alt-o</code> will expand the selection to the parent node, in this case, the
arguments node.</p>
<pre><code class="language-js">func[(arg1, arg2, arg3)];
</code></pre>
<p>There is also some nuanced behavior that prevents you from getting stuck on a
node with no sibling. When using <code>Alt-p</code> with a selection on <code>arg1</code>, the previous
child node will be selected. In the event that <code>arg1</code> does not have a previous
sibling, the selection will move up the syntax tree and select the previous
element. As a result, using <code>Alt-p</code> with a selection on <code>arg1</code> will move the
selection to the "func" <code>identifier</code>.</p>

<h1 id="themes"><a class="header" href="#themes">Themes</a></h1>
<p>To use a theme add <code>theme = "&lt;name&gt;"</code> to the top of your <a href="./configuration.html"><code>config.toml</code></a> file, or select it during runtime using <code>:theme &lt;name&gt;</code>.</p>
<h2 id="creating-a-theme"><a class="header" href="#creating-a-theme">Creating a theme</a></h2>
<p>Create a file with the name of your theme as the file name (i.e <code>mytheme.toml</code>) and place it in your <code>themes</code> directory (i.e <code>~/.config/helix/themes</code> or <code>%AppData%\helix\themes</code> on Windows). The directory might have to be created beforehand.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>💡 The names "default" and "base16_default" are reserved for built-in themes
and cannot be overridden by user-defined themes.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="overview"><a class="header" href="#overview">Overview</a></h3>
<p>Each line in the theme file is specified as below:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">key = { fg = "#ffffff", bg = "#000000", underline = { color = "#ff0000", style = "curl"}, modifiers = ["bold", "italic"] }
</code></pre>
<p>Where <code>key</code> represents what you want to style, <code>fg</code> specifies the foreground color, <code>bg</code> the background color, <code>underline</code> the underline <code>style</code>/<code>color</code>, and <code>modifiers</code> is a list of style modifiers. <code>bg</code>, <code>underline</code> and <code>modifiers</code> can be omitted to defer to the defaults.</p>
<p>To specify only the foreground color:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">key = "#ffffff"
</code></pre>
<p>If the key contains a dot <code>'.'</code>, it must be quoted to prevent it being parsed as a <a href="https://toml.io/en/v1.0.0#keys">dotted key</a>.</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">"key.key" = "#ffffff"
</code></pre>
<p>For inspiration, you can find the default <code>theme.toml</code>
<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/theme.toml">here</a> and
user-submitted themes

<h3 id="color-palettes"><a class="header" href="#color-palettes">Color palettes</a></h3>
<p>It's recommended to define a palette of named colors, and refer to them in the
configuration values in your theme. To do this, add a table called
<code>palette</code> to your theme file:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">"ui.background" = "white"
"ui.text" = "black"
[palette]
white = "#ffffff"
black = "#000000"
</code></pre>
<p>Keep in mind that the <code>[palette]</code> table includes all keys after its header,
so it should be defined after the normal theme options.</p>
<p>The default palette uses the terminal's default 16 colors, and the colors names
are listed below. The <code>[palette]</code> section in the config file takes precedence
over it and is merged into the default palette.</p>
<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Color Name</th></tr></thead><tbody>

Its behavior is equivalent to setting <code>underline.style="line"</code>.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="underline-style"><a class="header" href="#underline-style">Underline style</a></h3>

<h3 id="inheritance"><a class="header" href="#inheritance">Inheritance</a></h3>
<p>Extend other themes by setting the <code>inherits</code> property to an existing theme.</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">inherits = "boo_berry"

<p>The following is a list of scopes available to use for styling:</p>
<h4 id="syntax-highlighting"><a class="header" href="#syntax-highlighting">Syntax highlighting</a></h4>
<p>These keys match <a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/syntax-highlighting#theme">tree-sitter scopes</a>.</p>
<p>When determining styling for a highlight, the longest matching theme key will be used. For example, if the highlight is <code>function.builtin.static</code>, the key <code>function.builtin</code> will be used instead of <code>function</code>.</p>
<p>We use a similar set of scopes as
