![Main Window](/screenshots/neovimgtk-screen.png?raw=true)
# 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
As this project uses gtk-rs, custom option by GtkApplication not supported yet.
There is workaround to pass nvim execution path.
```
cargo run -- --nvim-bin-path=E:\Neovim\bin\nvim.exe
```
# 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.
```
SET PKG_CONFIG_PATH=C:\msys64\mingw64\lib\pkgconfig
cargo build --release
```
