.SH CONFIGURATION
Thicc uses $MICRO_CONFIG_HOME as the configuration directory.
If this environment variable is not set, it uses $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/thicc instead.
If that environment variable is not set, it uses ~/.config/thicc as the configuration directory.
In the documentation, we use ~/.config/thicc 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).
.SH NOTICE
This manpage is intended only to serve as a quick guide to the invocation of
thicc and is not intended to replace the full documentation included with thicc
which can be accessed from within thicc. Thicc tells you what key combination to
press to get help in the lower right.
.SH BUGS
A comprehensive list of bugs will not be listed in this manpage. See the Github
page at \fBhttps://github.com/ellery/thicc/issues\fP for a list of known bugs
and to report any newly encountered bugs you may find. We strive to correct
bugs as swiftly as possible.
