Installation Guide

Installing Oni

• Windows
• Mac
• Linux

NOTE: Windows & OSX releases come with a bundled neovim release, so you do not need a neovim install on those platforms.

Windows

• Download the Oni installer (x64) for Windows
• Once it is downloaded, run the installer. This will only take a minute.
• By default, Oni is installed under C:\Program Files\Oni

There are also other formats available:

• zip (x64)
• exe (x86)
• zip (x86)

You may want to add Oni to your %PATH%, so that from the console, you can open Oni via oni

The default shell for windows is the command prompt. If you have a Linux sub-system installed and want to use bash instead add set shell="bash" to your init.vim.

Mac

• Download Oni for Mac
• Double-click on the archive to expand
• Drag Oni.app to the Applications folder

To enable key repeat when pressing & holding a key in Oni, write the following in your terminal:

defaults write com.extropy.oni ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false

You can invoke oni from your terminal after adding it to your PATH, through CMD-Shift-P > Add to Path
