Generating a full, hardcoded config means that the file can go stale and fall out of sync with the built-in defaults though (let's say I generate the config with v0.5, but then there's major changes in v0.6). Isn't an example config & documentation enough? |

I would say the idea itself isn't bad since it makes it easier to see all the defaults and change the required ones easily for a new user, and we could programatically generate the full toml config from the source. One drawback would be that since helix is still in |

For the present, we can make a discussion(already made by @NNBnh 😄) for the same, so users can copy paste, or use the config file. |

Couldn't we use serde to automatically generate a default config file? Edit: Oh, it seems that @sudormrfbin already mentioned that. What if we were to generate TOML from the default config, but then tell the user to only use it to help them write their own config, and not to copy the entire default into their config? |

Maybe we can inspire ourselves from what ## Note: commented elements will use the default value, which may go out of sync with what is displayed here.
## This is especially true as long a Helix has not reached '1.0'.

## New configurations elements may be added and others removed. If you want to update your config, use:

## :default update

Unfortunately, no, there are way too many options, especially keybinds, so it's very inconvenient to copy&paste from the docs to change them. Before I found this issue I more or less had to do the same thing — convert the docs into a toml document then change the values
How is this worse vs. the same situation now, but instead of using the auto-generated v0.5 config the user does the same work by generating v0.5 config from the docs? |

in my configs I go a bit further and add the defaults in the comments, so whenever I'm playing with various values I always know how to reset, so in your example this would something like this: [editor]
# key = value # [default value] Comment
# scrolloff = 3 # [3] Number of lines of padding around the edge of the screen when scrolling
# mouse = true # [true] Enable mouse mode
# "line-number" = "absolute" # [absolute],relative Line number display |

@eugenesvk TOML does not allow line breaks in inline tables, so the following, for example, is a syntax error: "[" = {
"d" = "goto_prev_diag", # Go to previous diagnostic (LSP)
"D" = "goto_first_diag", # Go to first diagnostic in document (LSP)
"space" = "add_newline_above" # Add newline above
} |

Yeah, I know, but I just reformatted an existing example to show the benefits of proper alignment [keys.normal."["] # no commas needed below
"d" = "goto_prev_diag" # Go to previous diagnostic (**LSP**)
"D" = "goto_first_diag" # Go to first diagnostic in document (**LSP**) |

There is now a A somewhat ugly but functional way to populate the default config would be just a comment with a link to the config docs. I'm not a huge fan of the commented-out-all-options style - it feels overwhelming to me, especially the keymap part. |

maybe there can be an entry in the config file (which helix sets and checks) with the version number of the currently running hx version, and if parsing or config errors occur the user will be informed that he has to update his config. |

@NNBnh @kajuburfi Thanks to you two nonetheless, it was a very good starting point. I feel like a correct and readable default config could and should be generated from Maybe the accepted syntax for config should accept newlines in tables (non breaking) I'd be happy to help on this, having a nice time with helix and starting from an existing configuration file was a great help to feel at home. |

Many newcomer feel lost when trying to find a "setting panel" on a minimal software then realize that they have to open and manually edit a config file. Although me and other minimalist user prefer this config method, other may wish to have all setting option layout in front of them so they could just change the options values. That why many recent
clirust tool auto generate (or have an option flag) a config file template will all option inside it. This will be very useful not just to newcomer but also to a pro who is interest and want to start try out quickly. Here is my attempt:=== Read full config ===
