Step 6 of 6

On your own

The checklist below names each outcome, not which keys to press. Use whatever you learned in this lesson.

Helix leaves G unbound in normal mode. Give it a job: open your config, add a [keys.normal] section at the end of the file with one line in it, G = "goto_file_end", and select that line so the step can see it. Save the file, then switch back to exercise.txt — it’s still loaded in a buffer.

Finally, reload the config and press G. Until the reload has run, the key does nothing; after it, the cursor lands on the last line of this buffer and the step ticks.

  1. Open your config
  2. Add a [keys.normal] section mapping G to goto_file_end
  3. Save it
  4. Come back to exercise.txt
  5. Reload the config, then press G to prove the map works
Open your config

Next: Add a [keys.normal] section mapping G to goto_file_end
