+ <!-- I'm not sure if I should link to the wiki for this chunk of help, or if
+ I should describe it here. I'm linking to the wiki for now because the wiki
+ page includes downloads and screenshots. I'm open to including the help here,

+
+ <p>You can also use color schemes that have been created by others, or
+ create and use your own color schemes.</p>
+
+ <p>Instructions on how to install custom color schemes, as well as examples
