Highly experimental.
GNvim requires
- Stable rust to compile
- Latest nvim master
- Gtk version 3.18 or higher
There are some benchmarks for internal data structures, but to run those you'll
need nightly rust. To run those benchmarks, use cargo bench --features=unstable
command.
You're required to have rust tool chain available. Once you have that, clone
this repo and run make build followed by sudo make install.
GNvim requires some runtime files to be present and loaded by nvim to work
properly. By default, gnvim will look this files from /usr/local/share/gnvim/runtime,
but this can be changed by GNVIM_RUNTIME_PATH environment variable.
By default, gnvim will use nvim to run neovim. If you want to change that,
you can use --nvim flag (e.g. gnvim --nvim=/path/to/nvim).
For debugging purposes, there is --print-nvim-cmd flag to tell gnvim to print
the executed nvim command.
