@@ -2,12 +2,12 @@ Neovim is a project that seeks to aggressively refactor Vim in order to:
* Simplify maintenance and encourage contributions
* Split the work between multiple developers
-* Enable the implementation of new/modern user interfaces without any
- modifications to the core source
-* Improve extensibility with a new plugin architecture
+* Enable advanced UIs without modifications to the core
+* Maximize extensibility
-note on building:
-be sure to have lua (5.1) installed so that the lua-libraries neovim
-depends on are packaged for 5.1 (e.g. lpeg). the lua used in neovim is
-shipped with it, so lua isn't a direct dependency for neovim and not
-listed in REQUIRES.
+Optional run-time dependencies:
+* python3-neovim and python2-neovim: for python 3/2 plugin support;
+* xclip or xsel: for X11 clipboard support;
+* wl-clipboard: for clipboard support on wayland
+
+lua, lua-mpack, lua-lpeg, LuaBitOp are needed only at build time.
