Earlier quoted context omitted.

`K` in vim uses the program defined in `keywordprg` which is `man` by default, but can be set to whatever you want according to the file type.

Remapping `K` to devdocs.vim is quite handy. https://github.com/rhysd/devdocs.vim

I use dasht[1] and vim-dasht[2] but that looks nice.

Reminds me of Dash[1] which is especially useful when configured in your editor: press a key to open documentation for the word under the cursor. 1: https://kapeli.com/dash

The Dash author engaged in unethical practices and then attacked Apple when they closed his account.

Nice.. I didn't know about this.

Some people here seem to recommend it and they have been using it a lot apparently. Where did you learn about it? Is there a community our there I am missing out on?

It would be nice to have R on here !

Isn't some R documentation only accessible via pdf files? I couldn't provide a clear example, but months ago when I used R intensively I stumbled upon very extensible documentation via PDF only

I didn't know about this either, but I guess people find these things by visiting sites like HackerNews, just like us!
