+-- nvim configuration file
+--
+-- Script initially created for vim and based on a script created by
+-- Gerhard Gappmeier.
+--
+-- Then it was adapted to use my plugins, set them up, and set some
+-- configuration I liked for vim/nvim.
+--
+-- This has finally turned into a modular lua config just for nvim.
+--
+-- Directory structure and some files are based on the dotfiles at
+-- https://github.com/elianiva/dotfiles/blob/master/nvim/.config/nvim/lua.
+--
+-- @NOTE: This file is synced with dotfiles-external. Do not edit here!
