+## Getting started with ted
+
+After installing ted, you can just start using it like you would any other editor. The keyboard shortcuts
+are mostly what you'd expect them to be (Ctrl+o for open, Ctrl+s for save, etc.).
+
+### Configuration
+
+At any time, you can check out all the keyboard shortcuts, and add your own, by opening your ted.cfg file.
+To do this, press Ctrl+Shift+p
+to open the command palette, and select "open-config". There are several sections to this config file:
+
+- `[core]` for core settings
+- `[keyboard]` for keyboard shortcuts
+- `[colors]` for colors
+- `[extensions]` for which file extensions should be mapped to which programming languages
+
+Comments begin with `#`, and all other lines are of the form `key = value`.
+
+You need to restart ted when you make a change to ted.cfg.
+
+The `core` section's settings should be pretty familiar (font size, etc.) or should have comments on the previous line
+explaining what they do. Keyboard shortcuts are of the form `key combo = action`, where `action` is an argument (number or string),
+followed by a command. The commands match the things in the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+p), but `:` is added to the beginning to make
+it clear it's a command. Colors are formatted like `#rgb`, `#rgba`, `#rrggbb` or `#rrggbbaa`, where r, g, b, and a are red, green,
+blue, and alpha (transparency/opacity). You can use a [color picker](https://www.google.com/search?q=color+picker) to help you out. 
+The extensions section is fairly self-explanatory.
+
+### IDE-like features
+
+If you are working in a compiled language, like C, you can press F4 to compile your code. The default is to run `make` in
+the current directory or one of its parents, depending on where `Makefile` is. On Windows, if `make.bat` exists, it will be run.
+If a `Cargo.toml` file exists in this directory or one of its parents, F4 will run `cargo build`. You can set the default build command
+in the `[core]` section of the config file.
+
+Jump to definition and autocompletion both depend on [ctags](https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags). You can press Ctrl+T
+at any time to generate tags for all files in the current directory. Once you have a tags file, you can Ctrl+Click on an identifier
+to go to its definition. You can also press Ctrl+D to get a searchable list of all functions/types where you can select one to go to
+its definition. Press Ctrl+space to autocomplete. If there is only one possible completion from the tags file, it will be selected automatically.
+Otherwise, you'll get a popup showing all possible completions. You can press tab to select a completion (or click on it), and press
+Ctrl+space/Ctrl+shift+space to cycle between suggestions.
