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-
name, just like `:doc` uses. Because topics are identified
only by their basename, you should take care that your topic's name does not
collide with any of the names used by other plugins or Kakoune's standard
library.
