 To run the micro binary just run `./bin/micro` (you may want to place the binary on your path for ease of use).

 The colorscheme can be selected from all the files in the `~/.micro/colorschemes/` directory. Micro comes by default with three colorschemes:

 * solarized-tc: this is the solarized colorscheme for true color, just make sure your terminal supports true color before using it and that the `MICRO_TRUECOLOR` environment variable is set to 1 before starting micro.
 
+These are embedded in the Go binary, but to see their source code, look [here](./runtime/colorschemes)

 Any option you set in the editor will be saved to the file `~/.micro/settings.json` so, in effect, your configuration file will be created
 for you. If you'd like to take your configuration with you to another machine, simply copy the `settings.json` to the other machine.
