 .SH CONFIGURATION
 
-Micro uses
-\fI$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/micro\fR
-for configuration by default. If it is not set, micro uses ~/.config/micro.
-Two main configuration files are settings.json, containing the user's
-settings, and bindings.json, containing the user's custom keybindings.
-
-.SH ENVIRONMENT
-Micro's behaviour can be changed by setting environment variables, of which there is currently only one:
-\fIMICRO_TRUECOLOR\fR.
-When MICRO_TRUECOLOR is set to 1, micro will attempt to treat your terminal as a true-color terminal and will be able to make full use of the true-color colorschemes that are included with micro. If MICRO_TRUECOLOR is not set or is set to 0, then micro will only make use of 256 color features and will internally map true-color colorschemes to the nearest colors available. For more information see micro's documentation.
+Micro uses $MICRO_CONFIG_HOME as the configuration directory.
+If this environment variable is not set, it uses $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/micro instead.
+If that environment variable is not set, it uses ~/.config/micro as the configuration directory.
+In the documentation, we use ~/.config/micro to refer to the configuration directory
+(even if it may in fact be somewhere else if you have set either of the above environment variables).
