-The contents of this directory should be put in `~/.micro`.
+This directory will be embedded in the Go binary for portability, but it may just as well be put in `~/.config/micro`. If you would like to make your own colorschemes
+and syntax files, you can put them in `~/.config/micro/colorschemes` and `~/.config/micro/syntax` respectively.
