  <b>Helm</b> is an Emacs framework for incremental completions and narrowing
  selections. It helps to rapidly complete file names, buffer names, or
  any other Emacs interactions requiring selecting an item from a list of
  possible choices.
  Helm is a fork of <b>anything.el</b>, which was originally written by Tamas
  Patrovic and can be considered to be its successor. <b>Helm</b> cleans the
  legacy code that is leaner, modular, and unchained from constraints of
  backward compatibility.

  Maintainance of Helm is a <a href="https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm/commits?author=thierryvolpiatto"><b>Lot of work</b></a>
  I have done freely since 2011.<br>
  As it is taking a lot of my time it starts to be more and more difficult<br>
  maintaining it without financial help.<br>
  If you feel Helm is making your daily work easier,<br><b>please consider making a donation.</b>
