Install Telescope from GIT

https://github.com/ThomasAdam/telescope

My ~/.config/telescope/config:

# Break long lines at max at 92 columns set fill-column = 92

# Enable colors regardless of the NO_COLOR environment variable set enable-colors = 1

# Downloads set download-path = "/home/anthk/Downloads"

# Hide the closing line of preformatted blocks set hide-pre-closing-line = 1

# If you have the duckling-proxy installed, decomment the following # lines to use it for HTTP and HTTPS links. #proxy "http" via "gemini://localhost:1965" #proxy "https" via "gemini://localhost:1965"

proxy "http" via "gemini://stargate.gemi.dev:1994" proxy "https" via "gemini://stargate.gemi.dev:1994"

bind global-map C-s link-select bind global-map "C-x b" tab-select

# Some opinionated graphical improvements:
