-          You don't have a config file. The default config file paths are:
-          ./.youplot.yml, ./.youplotrc, ~/.youplot.yml, ~/.youplotrc
-          You can specify a config file with the environment variable MYYOUPLOTRC.
-          File format is YAML. For example:
-          width : 40
-          height : 20
+          Configuration file not found.
+          It should be a YAML file, like this example:
+            width : 40
+            height : 20
+          By default, YouPlot will look for the configuration file in these locations:
+          #{config_file_candidate_paths.map { |s| '  ' + s }.join("\n")}
+          If you have the file elsewhere, you can specify its location with the `MYYOUPLOTRC` environment variable..
