-# ALE Instructions
-
-## Basic Instructions
-
-Read documentation from @doc/ale-development.txt to understand how to be an
-ALE developer and how to match our standards.
-
-Run all tests quickly with `./run-tests -q --fast`, which picks the quickest
-version of Neovim we can run, and runs our linting checks.
-
-You can quickly check an individual Vader test file by passing them as arguments
-such as `./run-tests -q --fast test/path/some_file.vader`.
-
-You can quickly run all Lua tests with `./run-tests -q --lua-only`.
-
-
-For new Vim files, set `Author:` comments to the person doing the work.
-Do not use Codex, OpenAI, or other tool names as the author.
-
-## Writing Tests
-
-For `test/test-files` they should almost always be 0 bytes in size and files
-may be marked executable when testing searching for executables.
