 (although rewritten from scratch), that sacrifices the more advanced features in favour of increased responsiveness and performance.
 **skhd** is able to hotload its config file, meaning that hotkeys can be edited and updated live while **skhd** is running.
 
-**skhd** has an improved parser that is able to accurately identify both the line and character position of any symbol that does not
-follow the correct grammar rules for defining a hotkey. If a syntax error is detected during parsing, the parser will print the error and abort.
-**skhd** will still continue to run and when the syntax error has been fixed, it will automatically reload and reparse the config file.
