-<p>For a full interactive introduction to Helix, refer to the
-<a href="https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/runtime/tutor">tutor</a> which
-can be accessed via the command <code>hx --tutor</code> or <code>:tutor</code>.</p>
-<blockquote>
-<p>πŸ’‘ Currently, not all functionality is fully documented, please refer to the
-<a href="./keymap.html">key mappings</a> list.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<h2 id="registers"><a class="header" href="#registers">Registers</a></h2>
-<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>&quot;</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>&quot;ay</code> - Yank the current selection to register <code>a</code>.</li>
-<li><code>&quot;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>&quot;hc</code> - Store the selection in register <code>h</code> and then change it (delete and enter insert mode).</li>
-<li><code>&quot;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>&quot;</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>
-<h2 id="surround"><a class="header" href="#surround">Surround</a></h2>
-<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="selecting-and-manipulating-text-with-textobjects"><a class="header" href="#selecting-and-manipulating-text-with-textobjects">Selecting and manipulating text with textobjects</a></h2>
-<p>In Helix, textobjects are a way to select, manipulate and operate on a piece of
-text in a structured way. They allow you to refer to blocks of text based on
-their structure or purpose, such as a word, sentence, paragraph, or even a
-function or block of code.</p>

-<ul>
-<li><code>ma</code> - Select around the object (<code>va</code> in Vim, <code>&lt;alt-a&gt;</code> in Kakoune)</li>
-<li><code>mi</code> - Select inside the object (<code>vi</code> in Vim, <code>&lt;alt-i&gt;</code> in Kakoune)</li>
-</ul>
-<div class="table-wrapper"><table><thead><tr><th>Key after <code>mi</code> or <code>ma</code></th><th>Textobject selected</th></tr></thead><tbody>

-<p>Navigating between functions, classes, parameters, and other elements is

-<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> β”Œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”
- β”‚callβ”‚
- β”Œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”΄β”€β”€β”€β”€β”΄β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”

- β”Œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β–Όβ” β”Œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β–Όβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β” β”Œβ–Όβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”
- β”‚identifierβ”‚ β”‚identifierβ”‚ β”‚identifierβ”‚

-</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 &quot;func&quot; <code>identifier</code>.</p>
