Keep this in. Removing this increases the timeoutlen to the default 1000 ms for all other map sequences.

Add a comment here explaining delay option and that it is independent of the timeoutlen option.

The which-key plugin used to rely on vim.opt.timeoutlen, but it was updated a few months ago to use its own opt.delay instead. https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim/blob/8ab96b38a2530eacba5be717f52e04601eb59326/NEWS.md?plain=1#L10 I set which-key's delay to 0 ms because it makes it feel snappy and responsive! That way, we give new users a good first impression.

I was trying to make which-key pop up instantly. I tried changing
vim.opt.timeoutlento 0, then to 1000, but it made no difference. While searching through thewhich-keyrepository, I discovered they changed how the plugin's delay is configured. They used to rely onvim.opt.timeoutlen, but they changed that a few months ago. Now they use their ownopt.delayinstead.The previous 300 ms delay led me assume there was some horribly inefficient code somewhere in neovim, lua, or which-key. I changed the delay to 0 ms and that makes
which-keyfeel really snappy and responsive! I think other newcomers to neovim would appreciate that feel.
