But again, I’ll put it on the list for next week, lots going on in real life and for MX. Like the browser your requested which I haven’t forgotten about.

$ which nvim
/usr/bin/nvim

I did modify it a bit thought, because it trys to install it system-wide(Below is basically the same script just changed the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)
