169 <para>If you want <application>Nano</application> to store
170 search and position log files, make sure that the directory
171 <filename class="directory">$HOME/.local/share</filename> exists.
172 When using those settings in a system-wide configuration, you
173 should update <filename class="directory">/etc/skel</filename> to
174 make the directory available for all (new) users.

178 Another example is the <filename>nanorc.sample</filename> file

185 Syntax highlighting is provided for several file types, in
186 <filename class="directory">/usr/share/nano/</filename> directory.
187 E.g., for shell scripts, you can insert
188 <option>include /usr/share/nano/sh.nanorc</option> in the personal or
189 global configuration file. If you wish highlighting for all supported
190 files, use <option>include /usr/share/nano/*.nanorc</option>.
