Ok, so in vim I'd type 'd$' as "delete to end of line". What is the equivalent in helix?

EDIT: while I'm here, where are the sentence and paragraph movements?

The fastest way to do this in Helix would be `t<Enter>d`.

edit: Paragraph and other object movement/selection is done by the `[`, `]` menu. `]p` for the next paragraph. Surrounds are done by the `m` menu.

Thanks, that's helpful.

I get it - so 't' is 'to' and enter is new line. Makes sense.

You can do vged. Currently ge takes you to the last line, but there is a change planned to take you to the absolute end.

Not in neovim anymore!

EDIT: Oops, you weren't replying to my 'dd' question. Sorry ignore me. Though if you know the equivalent of 'dd' in helix I'd like to know...
