That's the part that my machine choked on.
`npm install -g pnpm' went ok.=20
However, I get an error msg running `pnpm install' :

:~/git/pike-lsp
$ pnpm install
bash: pnpm: command not found

I just wanted to test-drive the lsp, so it's not an important issue for me=
.
Your review is plenty helpful. Thx.

I'll try to fix the `pnpm' problem, and if successful, try configuring `he=
lix'
to use the pike-lsp and see how it performs there - but it's not a top pri=
ority
for me. I'm just looking for a slick pike-hacking workflow. I usually work=
 in
emacs, so `helix' is new to me as well.

Thx for your review and comments!
