+go get -d github.com/zyedidia/micro/cmd/micro

+
+The binary will then be installed to `$GOPATH/bin` (or your `$GOBIN`).
+
+Please make sure that when you are working with micro's code, you are working on your `GOPATH`.
+
+You can install directly with `go get` (`go get -u github.com/zyedidia/micro/cmd/micro`) but this isn't recommended because it doesn't build micro with version information which is useful for the plugin manager.

-### Colorschemes
+## Colorschemes
 
 Micro comes with a number of colorschemes by default. Here is the list:
 
 * simple: this is the simplest colorscheme. It uses 16 colors which are
   set by your terminal
 
-* zenburn: this is micro's default colorscheme because it looks very good
-  and works in 256 color terminals.
-  this colorscheme also has the name 'default'
-
-* solarized: this is the solarized colorscheme. 
-  You should have the solarized color palette in your terminal to use it.
-
-* 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.
-
-* monokai: this is the monokai colorscheme; you may recognize it as 
+* mc: A 16-color theme based on the look and feel of GNU Midnight Commander.
+  This will look great used in conjunction with Midnight Commander.
+  
+* nano: A 16-color theme loosely based on GNU nano's syntax highlighting.   
+  
+* monokai: this is the monokai colorscheme; you may recognize it as
   Sublime Text's default colorscheme. It requires true color to
   look perfect, but the 256 color approximation looks very good as well.
+  It's also the default colorscheme.
+
+* zenburn: The 'zenburn' colorscheme and works well with 256 color terminals
+
+* solarized: this is the solarized colorscheme.
+  You should have the solarized color palette in your terminal to use it.
+
+* 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.
 
 * atom-dark-tc: this colorscheme is based off of Atom's "dark" colorscheme.
   It requires true color to look good.
 
-To enable one of these colorschemes just run the command `set colorscheme solarized`.
-(or whichever one you choose).
+* cmc-16: A very nice 16-color theme. Written by contributor CaptainMcClellan
+  (Collin Warren.) Licensed under the same license as the rest of the themes.
+
+* cmc-paper: Basically cmc-16, but on a white background. ( Actually light grey on most 
+  ANSI (16-color) terminals.)
+
+* cmc-tc: A true colour variant of the cmc theme. 
+  It requires true color to look its best. Use cmc-16 if your terminal doesn't support true color.
+
+* codeblocks: A colorscheme based on the Code::Blocks IDE's default syntax highlighting.
+
+* codeblocks-paper: Same as codeblocks, but on a white background. ( Actually light grey. )
+
+* github-tc: A colorscheme based on Github's syntax highlighting. Requires true color to look its best.
+
+* paper-tc: A nice minimalist theme with a light background, good for editing documents on.
+  Requires true color to look its best. Not to be confused with `-paper` suffixed themes.
+

-### Syntax files
-
-The syntax files specify how to highlight certain languages.
-
-The first statement in a syntax file will probably the syntax statement. This tells micro
-what language the syntax file is for and how to detect a file in that language.
-
-Essentially, it's just
-
-```
-syntax "Name of language" "\.extension$"
-```
-
-For the extension, micro will just compare that regex to the filename and if it matches then it
-will use the syntax rules defined in the remainder of the file.
-
-There is also a possibility to use a header statement which is a regex that micro will compare
-with the first line of the file. This is almost only used for shebangs at the top of shell scripts
-which don't have any extension (see sh.micro for an example).
+Colorschemes must be placed in the `~/.config/micro/colorschemes` directory to be used.
 
 ---
 
-The rest of a syntax file is very simple and is essentially a list of regexes specifying how to highlight
-different expressions.
+In addition to the main colorscheme groups, there are subgroups that you can
+specify by adding `.subgroup` to the group. If you're creating your own
+custom syntax files, you can make use of your own subgroups.
 
-It is recommended that when creating a syntax file you use the colorscheme groups (see above) to
-highlight different expressions. You may also hard code colors, but that may not look good depending
-on what terminal colorscheme the user has installed.
+If micro can't match the subgroup, it'll default to the root group, so 
+it's safe and recommended to use subgroups in your custom syntax files.
 
-Here is an example to highlight comments (expressions starting with `//`):
+For example if `constant.string` is found in your colorscheme, micro will
+use that for highlighting strings. If it's not found, it will use constant 
+instead. Micro tries to match the largest set of groups it can find in the
+colorscheme definitions, so if, for examle `constant.bool.true` is found then
+micro will use that. If `constant.bool.true` is not found but `constant.bool`
+is found micro will use `constant.bool`. If not, it uses `constant`. 
+
+Here's a list of subgroups used in micro's built-in syntax files.
+
+* comment.bright ( Some filetypes have distinctions between types of comments.)
+* constant.bool
+* constant.bool.true
+* constant.bool.false
+* constant.number 
+* constant.specialChar
+* constant.string
+* constant.string.url 
+* identifier.class ( Also used for functions. )
+* identifier.macro
+* identifier.var
+* preproc.shebang ( The #! at the beginning of a file that tells the os what script interpreter to use. )
+* symbol.brackets ( {}()[] and sometimes <> )
+* symbol.operator ( Color operator symbols differently. )
+* symbol.tag ( For html tags, among other things.)
+* type.keyword ( If you want a special highlight for keywords like `private` )
+
+In the future, plugins may also be able to use color groups for styling.
+
+## Syntax files
+
+The syntax files is written in yaml-format and specify how to highlight languages.
+
+Micro's builtin syntax highlighting tries very hard to be sane, sensible
+and provide ample coverage of the meaningful elements of a language. Micro has
+syntax files built int for over 100 languages now. However, there may be 
+situations where you find Micro's highlighting to be insufficient or not to
+your liking. Good news is you can create syntax files (.micro extension), place them in 
+`~/.config/micro/syntax` and Micro will use those instead.
+
+### Filetype defintion
+
+You must start the syntax file by declaring the filetype:
 
 ```
-color comment "//.*"
+filetype: go
 ```
 
-This will highlight the regex `//.*` in the color that the user's colorscheme has linked to the comment
-group.
+#### Detect definition
 
-Note that this regex only matches the current line. Here is an example for multiline comments (`/* comment */`):
+Then you must provide information about how to detect the filetype:
 
 ```
-color comment start="/\*" end="\*/"
+detect:
+    filename: "\\.go$"
+```
+
+Micro will match this regex against a given filename to detect the filetype. You may also
+provide an optional `header` regex that will check the first line of the file. For example:
+
+```
+detect:
+    filename: "\\.ya?ml$"
+    header: "%YAML"
+```
+
+#### Syntax rules
+
+Next you must provide the syntax highlighting rules. There are two types of rules: patterns and regions.
+A pattern is matched on a single line and usually a single word as well. A region highlights between two
+patterns over multiple lines and may have rules of its own inside the region.
+
+Here are some example patterns in Go:
+
+```
+rules:
+    - special: "\\b(break|case|continue|default|go|goto|range|return)\\b"
+    - statement: "\\b(else|for|if|switch)\\b"
+    - preproc: "\\b(package|import|const|var|type|struct|func|go|defer|iota)\\b"
+```
+
+The order of patterns does matter as patterns lower in the file will overwrite the ones defined above them.
+
+And here are some example regions for Go:
+
+```
+- constant.string:
+    start: "\""
+    end: "\""
+    rules:
+        - constant.specialChar: "%."
+        - constant.specialChar: "\\\\[abfnrtv'\\\"\\\\]"
+        - constant.specialChar: "\\\\([0-7]{3}|x[A-Fa-f0-9]{2}|u[A-Fa-f0-9]{4}|U[A-Fa-f0-9]{8})"
+
+- comment:
+    start: "//"
+    end: "$"
+    rules:
+        - todo: "(TODO|XXX|FIXME):?"
+
+- comment:
+    start: "/\\*"
+    end: "\\*/"
+    rules:
+        - todo: "(TODO|XXX|FIXME):?"
+```
+
+Notice how the regions may contain rules inside of them. Any inner rules that are matched are then skipped when searching
+for the end of the region. For example, when highlighting `"foo \" bar"`, since `\"` is matched by an inner rule in the
+region, it is skipped. Likewise for `"foo \\" bar`, since `\\` is matched by an inner rule, it is skipped, and then the `"`
+is found and the string ends at the correct place.
+
+You may also explicitly mark skip regexes if you don't want them to be highlighted. For example:
+
+```
+- constant.string:
+    start: "\""
+    end: "\""
+    skip: "\\."
+    rules: []
+```
+
+#### Includes
+
+You may also include rules from other syntax files as embedded languages. For example, the following is possible
+for html:
+
+```
+- default:
+    start: "<script.*?>"
+    end: "</script.*?>"
+    rules:
+        - include: "javascript"
+
+- default:
+    start: "<style.*?>"
+    end: "</style.*?>"
+    rules:
+        - include: "css"
 ```
