Module hints 

Source
Expand description

The hint registry — the one place that turns a focus/cursor context into the key hints the status bar shows. Each surface still declares its own context hints (hint_shortcuts); this module owns the global hints (always-on actions, right-aligned on status line 1) and the shared Hint shape. The leader engine and which-key overlay (phases 05/06) will read from here so hint text never forks from the actual bindings.

Functions§

global_hints
The always-on global hints, right-aligned on status line 1: the actions a user must always be able to find regardless of focus.
hints_for
Build hints for (action, label) pairs, dropping actions with no binding.

Type Aliases§

Hint
One key hint: (key combo label, action label). An empty key renders the label alone, emphasized (used by the nvim backend’s mode line).
