Make sure when installing helix from the fork with steel enabled, that you
run cargo xtask code-gen
from the root. This will setup all of the necessary steel files in the right spot.
You'll also need to have a matching version of cargo-steel-lib
or the steel
executable installed - you can
then run cargo-steel-lib
or steel dylib
from the root of crates/steel-pty
in order to build the dylib
for the terminal library.
- There is a debug window which will capture output from steel
displayln
and render accordingly, just run:open-debug-window
- Embedded terminal - run
:open-term
to open it up - Embedded
xplr
as a file picker. You'll need thexplr
binary enabled on your path. Just runxplr
and then navigate to a file. Hitting enter will open it in the editor.
The terminal windows at the moment do not resize properly when the terminal is resized. However, they can be dragged around the terminal with your mouse.
