+vim.empty_dict() *vim.empty_dict()*
+ Creates a special table which will be converted to an empty
+ dictionary when converting lua values to vimL or API types. The
+ table is empty, and this property is marked using a metatable. An
+ empty table `{}` without this metatable will default to convert to
+ an array/list.
+
+ Note: if numeric keys are added to the table, the metatable will be
+ ignored and the dict converted to a list/array anyway.

vim.rpcnotify({channel}, {method}[, {args}...]) *vim.rpcnotify()*
Sends {event} to {channel} via |RPC| and returns immediately.
If {channel} is 0, the event is broadcast to all channels.
