Helix also needs its runtime files so make sure to copy/symlink the `runtime/` directory into the
config directory (for example `~/.config/helix/runtime` on Linux/macOS, or `%AppData%/helix/runtime` on Windows).
| OS | command |
|-----------|-----------|
|windows |`xcopy runtime %AppData%/helix/runtime`|
|linux/macos|`ln -s $PWD/runtime ~/.config/helix/runtime`
