Hello,

I am very new to nixos, and trying to configure my first nixos system. Although I am definitely lacking basics in nix package manager or nixos, but it seems to there is some outdated or wrong information nix section of installation document. Installation document states

If you use the [Nix package manager](https://github.com/NixOS/nix), either because you installed it yourself or because you are using NixOS, you can build kmonad using the following command.

nix-build nix

I presume installation document mentions kmonad/nix directory. Under this directory current structure from my latest git clone is as follows.

kmonad/nix
├── flake.lock
├── flake.nix
├── nixos-module.nix
├── nixos-test.nix
├── static
│   ├── default.nix
│   └── stack.yaml
└── static-compilation.nix

nix-build nix command under kmonad directory gives error for not finding default.nix.

Could you please update this section, or if I am missing something, could you point out what you really mean here.

it does appear to be outdated, as it's using flakes you should just be able to do nix build instead of nix-build with flakes enabled

Release v0.4.2
d0ad322 
Notable changes:

- Added `around-next-single`, a variant of `around-next` that will
  release its context on any change, as opposed to only on the release
  of the 'arounded' button.
- Added default compose sequence for Ü
- Added a `sticky-key`
- Added `--version` (`-V`) flag
- Added `+,` for  "add a cedilla"
- Added `:timeout-button` keyword to `tap-hold-next` and
  `tap-hold-next-release`, so that they can switch to a button
  other than the hold button when the timeout expires.
- The `multi-tap` key now immediately taps the current key when another
  key is pressed during tapping.
- Fixed compilation error under Mac, having to do with typo in Keycodes.
- Fixed issue with empty-names for uinput-sinks.
- Ignore SIGCHLD to deal with non-termination bug.

---

This should probably be 0.5, but notable issues like [1..6] still
preventing me from being comfortable with that. None of these seem
completely insurmountable, though, so stay tuned :)
