 Documentation will be displayed in the client named in the `docsclient` option.
 
 == Using the documentation browser
 
-Documentation buffers are like any other buffer, so you can scroll through them
-as normal, search within a topic with `/`, etc. However, they can also contain
-links, <<doc#demonstration-target,like this>>. When you see a link, you can
-follow it by moving the cursor onto it and pressing Enter. If the link takes you
-to a different documentation topic, you can get back by using the `:buffer`
-command.

 == Writing documentation
 
-Documentation must be in AsciiDoc format, with the extension `.asciidoc`,
-and stored somewhere within <<doc#sources,the documentation search path>>.
-Kakoune's built-in documentation renderer does not necessarily support every
-feature, so don't go overboard with formatting.

-To create a link to another documentation topic, the URL should be the topic-

-collide with any of the names used by other plugins or Kakoune's standard
-library.
