# Micro syntax highlighting files These are the syntax highlighting files for micro. To install them, just put them all in `~/.micro/syntax`. They are taken from Nano, specifically from [this repository](https://github.com/scopatz/nanorc). Micro syntax files are almost identical to Nano's, except for some key differences: * Micro does not use `icolor`. Instead use the case insensitive flag (`(?i)`) in the regular expression * Micro does not support `start="..." end="..."`, instead use the multiline match flag (`(?s)`) and put `.*?` in the middle
