Getting started

First, make sure you have bat and fzf installed. Lexy requires it for syntax highlighting and searching.

You can use the command lexy --help to see all available options.

lexy --help
Usage: lexy [OPTIONS] <LANGUAGE>

  Display <LANGUAGE> documentation using bat.

  <LANGUAGE> refers to the language name or the following options:

  - Use "list" to view all available languages.

  - Use "update" to force update Lexy.

  - Use "modified" to view the last modified date of Lexy.

Options:
  --version  Show the version and exit.
  --help     Show this message and exit.

Lexy keeps a local copy of the documentation in $HOME/.config/lexy, which is created automatically the first time you run Lexy, and it will be updated every 60 days. You can force an update using "update" as <LANGUAGE>.
