+*help.txt* For Vim version 8.2. Last change: 2020 Aug 15
+
+ VIM - main help file
+ k
+ Move around: Use the cursor keys, or "h" to go left, h l
+ "j" to go down, "k" to go up, "l" to go right. j
+Close this window: Use ":q<Enter>".
+ Get out of Vim: Use ":qa!<Enter>" (careful, all changes are lost!).
+
+Jump to a subject: Position the cursor on a tag (e.g. |bars|) and hit CTRL-].
+ With the mouse: ":set mouse=a" to enable the mouse (in xterm or GUI).
+ Double-click the left mouse button on a tag, e.g. |bars|.
+ Jump back: Type CTRL-O. Repeat to go further back.
+
+Get specific help: It is possible to go directly to whatever you want help
+ on, by giving an argument to the |:help| command.
+ Prepend something to specify the context: *help-context*
+
+ WHAT PREPEND EXAMPLE ~
+ Normal mode command :help x
+ Visual mode command v_ :help v_u
+ Insert mode command i_ :help i_<Esc>
+ Command-line command : :help :quit
+ Command-line editing c_ :help c_<Del>
+ Vim command argument - :help -r
+ Option ' :help 'textwidth'
+ Regular expression / :help /[
+ See |help-summary| for more contexts and an explanation.
+
+ Search for help: Type ":help word", then hit CTRL-D to see matching
+ help entries for "word".
+ Or use ":helpgrep word". |:helpgrep|
+
+ Getting started: Do the Vim tutor, a 30-minute interactive course for the
+ basic commands, see |vimtutor|.
+ Read the user manual from start to end: |usr_01.txt|
+
+Vim stands for Vi IMproved. Most of Vim was made by Bram Moolenaar, but only
+through the help of many others. See |credits|.

+LOCAL ADDITIONS: *local-additions*
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+*bars* Bars example
+
+Now that you've jumped here with CTRL-] or a double mouse click, you can use
+CTRL-T, CTRL-O, g<RightMouse>, or <C-RightMouse> to go back to where you were.
+
+Note that tags are within | characters, but when highlighting is enabled these
+characters are hidden. That makes it easier to read a command.
+
+Anyway, you can use CTRL-] on any word, also when it is not within |, and Vim
+will try to find help for it. Especially for options in single quotes, e.g.
+'compatible'.
