# Installation
TODO: Prebuilt binaries on GitHub Releases page
We provide pre-built binaries on the [GitHub Releases page](https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/releases).
## OSX

## Build from source
```
$ git clone --depth 1 --recurse-submodules -j8 https://github.com/helix-editor/helix
$ cd helix
$ cargo install --path helix-term
git clone --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules -j8 https://github.com/helix-editor/helix
cd helix
cargo install --path helix-term
```
This will install the `hx` binary to `$HOME/.cargo/bin`.
Now copy the `runtime/` directory somewhere. Helix will by default look for the
runtime inside the same folder as the executable, but that can be overriden via
the `HELIX_RUNTIME` environment variable.

## Select / extend mode
I'm still pondering whether to keep this mode or not. It changes movement
commands to extend the existing selection instead of replacing it.

> implemented for all movement commands yet.
