FILES
 | 
			
		||||
=====
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Configuration
 | 
			
		||||
-------------
 | 
			
		||||
**cheat** is configured via a YAML file that is conventionally named
 | 
			
		||||
_conf.yaml_.  **cheat** will search for _conf.yaml_ in varying locations,
 | 
			
		||||
depending upon your platform:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Linux, OSX, and other Unixes ###
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1. **CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH**
 | 
			
		||||
2. **XDG_CONFIG_HOME**/cheat/conf.yaml
 | 
			
		||||
3. **$HOME**/.config/cheat/conf.yml
 | 
			
		||||
4. **$HOME**/.cheat/conf.yml
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Windows ###
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1. **CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH**
 | 
			
		||||
2. **APPDATA**/cheat/conf.yml
 | 
			
		||||
3. **PROGRAMDATA**/cheat/conf.yml
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
**cheat** will search in the order specified above. The first _conf.yaml_
 | 
			
		||||
encountered will be respected.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If **cheat** cannot locate a config file, it will ask if you'd like to generate
 | 
			
		||||
one automatically. Alternatively, you may also generate a config file manually
 | 
			
		||||
by running **cheat --init** and saving its output to the appropriate location
 | 
			
		||||
for your platform.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Cheatpaths
 | 
			
		||||
----------
 | 
			
		||||
**cheat** reads its cheatsheets from "cheatpaths", which are the directories in
 | 
			
		||||
which cheatsheets are stored. Cheatpaths may be configured in _conf.yaml_, and
 | 
			
		||||
viewed via **cheat -d**.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For detailed instructions on how to configure cheatpaths, please refer to the
 | 
			
		||||
comments in conf.yml.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Autocompletion
 | 
			
		||||
--------------
 | 
			
		||||
Autocompletion scripts for **bash**/**zsh** and **fish** are available for
 | 
			
		||||
download:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- <https://github.com/cheat/cheat/blob/master/scripts/cheat.bash>
 | 
			
		||||
- <https://github.com/cheat/cheat/blob/master/scripts/cheat.fish>
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The **bash**/**zsh** scripts provide optional integration with **fzf**, if the
 | 
			
		||||
latter is available on your **PATH**.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The installation process will vary per system and shell configuration, and thus
 | 
			
		||||
will not be discussed here.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
ENVIRONMENT
 | 
			
		||||
===========
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
**CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH**
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
: The path at which the config file is available. If **CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH** is
 | 
			
		||||
set, all other config paths will be ignored.
