Hi everyone,

When starting Neovim in a Terminal, it gives out:

```
notedown executable is required in order for this software to work. Check whether you have needed dependencies installed in README.md

```

Also the permissions by ``` :w ``` don't work proper.
Ether I have to force with ``` :w! ``` ,or even nothing works.

I run Neovim 0.3.4 lubuntu_18.0.2_bionic. But I tried also Neovim 2.0.0 already, with the same problem.

I read the README.md on https://github.com/neovim/neovim. Or which README.md could by ment? Whithout getting any hint.

I don't understand, and can't find anything about a
»notedown executable«.

So far my problem with Neovim.


THANKS

Hi,
I am not sure, if you are not off topic here with Neovim problems.
Nevertheless I try to give you some hints.

Have you installed any external plugins that requires notedown?
Could it be this:
https://github.com/szymonmaszke/vimpyter

Note it requires notedown to be installed:
https://github.com/aaren/notedown

Not sure what you mean with doesn't work.
I suspect this should be filed with more details at:
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/

Please be more verbose when filing a bug:
Do you get an error message? What exactly do you expect the permissions
to be? How to reproduce this?

Best,
Christian

... for being out of topic, the answer came quick, and solved the problem.

😇👍

Thanks very much.
