config-help
config-help [section]config-help --htmlconfig-help [section] --manconfig-help --helpOpens the offline fish shell configuration manual in the best available
pager. Falls back through ov -> bat -> man -> less -> cat.
If a section keyword is provided, the pager opens at the first heading
that matches the keyword. Lookup order: docs/fish-config.index (exact
keyword aliases), then a normalized heading scan as fallback.
When opened with ov a sticky navigation hint is shown at the top of the
screen. Section matching is case-insensitive. Pass –html / -w to open
the published documentation website (https://fish-config-docs.pages.dev/)
in the default browser via xdg-open — deep links to a section aren’t
supported there, so if a keyword is given a note points you to the site’s
search box instead. Pass –man / -m to open the compiled man page
(docs/fish-config.1) via man -l; if a section keyword is given, the
pager opens at the nearest match. Pass –help or -h for usage and the
navigation key reference.

Notes: The preferred invocation is `help config [...]` — this function is registered as a handler in the help wrapper so that syntax works transparently. Direct `config-help` calls are also valid.config-helpconfig-help keybindingsconfig-help pkgconfig-help fish-depsconfig-help --htmlconfig-help --manconfig-help keys --manconfig-help --helpconfig-help pkg --man
