+The default profile folder (where platform system files, cheats and

+this folder instead.
+
+Since the ananke library is also built, you can import your regular
+ROM game files into higan's library using the option "Import Game" in
+the Library menu. When you import a rom file it will be converted into
+higan's format and saved in the Game Library Path specified in the
+Advanced Settings options (Settings -> Configuration -> Advanced).
+After that you can load your game through the correspondent system
+option in the Library menu.
