+The search order is:
+
+ ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/sxemacs
+ ${HOME}/.config/sxemacs # if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set
+ ${HOME}/.sxemacs # if other dirs don't exist
+
+You can also force the use of ~/.sxemacs regardless of the existence
+of the XDG dir/var by setting $SXE_USE_LEGACY environment variable to
+a non-nil value.
+
+If you're coming from XEmacs, symlinking your old ~/.xemacs directory
+to a SXEmacs location should be enough to get you up and running:
+
+ $ ln -svfn ${HOME}/.xemacs ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/sxemacs
