 `hurl.nvim` comes with some default key mappings to streamline your workflow:
 
-- `q`: Close the current popup window.
+- `q`: Close the current popup window or split.
 - `<C-n>`: Switch to the next popup window.
 - `<C-p>`: Switch to the previous popup window.
 
 These key mappings are active within the popup windows that `hurl.nvim`
 displays.
 
+The mappings can be customized in the configuration table passed to the setup
+function.
