lua << EOF
require('rikai').setup({
  -- Maximum number of dictionary entries to show
  max_entries = 7,

  -- Visually select the longest match
  select_match = true,

  -- Floating window options
  float_opts = {
    relative = 'cursor', -- 'editor' | 'win' | 'cursor' | 'mouse'
    row = 1, -- vertical offset
    col = 0, -- horizontal offset
    width = 60,
    height = 20,
