# Font settings
|
|
By default gnome settings are used:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name
|
|
```
|
|
To setup font add next line to *ginit.vim*
|
|
```vim
|
|
call rpcnotify(1, 'Gui', 'Font', 'DejaVu Sans Mono 12')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Command line
|
|
* pass nvim custom execution path (by default used `nvim` command)
|
|
```
|
|
cargo run -- --nvim-bin-path=E:\Neovim\bin\nvim.exe
|
|
```
|
|
* enable external autocompletion popup menu (this function limited a bit, so disabled by default)
|
|
```
|
|
cargo run -- --enable-external-popup
|
|
```
|
|
# Install
|
|
## Ubuntu snap package
|
|
Not usable for now due to some limitation!
|
|
|
|
This package also includes neovim, so neovim not needed and if present in system - not used. Install command:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo snap install nvim-gtk --channel=candidate
|
|
```
|
|
There is some limitation for package: only `/home` directory available for editing and '~' is mapped to snap home directory.
|
|
Config files must be placed in `~/snap/nvim-gtk/common/config/nvim/[g]init.vim` directory
|
|
|
|
Run command: `nvim-gtk <file_name>` or from dash: `NeovimGtk`.
|
|
|
|
To run neovim provided by snap package execute: `nvim-gtk.neovim`.
|
|
|
|
# Build
|
|
## Linux
|
|
Install GTK development packages. Install latest rust compiler, better use *rustup* tool. Build command:
|
|
```
|
|
cargo build --release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
Neovim-gtk can be compiled using MSYS2 GTK packages. In this case use 'windows-gnu' rust toolchain.

|
|
cargo build --release
