Where to put *.lang syntax highlighting files for gedit in Windows

Question

I'm trying to add coffeescript syntax highlighting to gedit in Windows, but I can't work out where to put the *.lang file.

I'm following the instructions here, but the path ~/.local/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs doesn't seem to apply to Windows.

You're going to want to look here:

C:\Program Files\gedit\share\gtksourceview-2.0\language-specs\
