Installation

• RECOMENDED: On Windows 10/11 to allow creations of symlinks (npm creates them) you need to enable Developer Mode Go to Settings > System > For Developers > Developer Mode > On

• RetroNvim installs cvim a vscodevim fork with flash.nvim support and whichkey a menu for keymaps vscode extensions as optional dependencies

• Touchcursor Keyboard Layout on macos requires zb install karabiner

• terax on archlinux requires pacman -S webkit2gtk-4.1

• terax on debian requires apt install webkit2gtk-4.1-dev

• terax on linux requires chsh --shell /bin/zsh (sets zsh as default shell)

• terax requires the setting Font family: FiraCode Nerd Font for icons support (pixi exec --channel retronvim --with font-fira-code-nerd-font -- firacode-nerdfont-installer to install firacode font)
