GPL-3.0-or-later
* Fri Aug 22 2025 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.6
* The GotoLine menu accepts the prefixes ++ and -- for jumping
a number of lines forward or backward.
* Anchors are not forgotten when a line number is given on the
command line
* Thu Jun 12 2025 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.5
* Anchors are now saved when a file is closed, and restored when
the file is reopened -- if and when --positionlog is active
* Nano exits with an error status upon keystrokes ^O^Q and ^X^Q
* Keystroke ^L just centers the cursor, while M-% cycles it
* Option --whitespace is accepted, but left undocumented
* Syntax coloring now works correctly in more locales
* Mon Apr 07 2025 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.4:
* Bracketed pastes over a slow connection are more reliable
* Tabs in an external paste at a prompt are not dropped
* Feedback occurs when the cursor sits on a Byte Order Mark
* The Execute prompt is more forgiving of a typo
* Sat Dec 21 2024 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.3:
* Fix a build failure with gcc-15
* Update several translations
* Fri Oct 04 2024 Yann BOYER <yann.boyer742@gmail.com>
- GNU nano 8.2:
* At a Yes-No prompt, beside Y and the localized initial for "Yes", also ^Y is accepted. Similarly, ^N for "No", and ^A for "All".
* A text-highlighting bug with Alt+Home/Alt+End is fixed.
* Sat Jul 13 2024 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.1:
* The idiom nano filename:linenumber is understood only when
the option --colonparsing (or 'set colonparsing') is used
* Modern bindings are not activated when nano's invocation name
starts with "e", as it jars with Debian's alternatives system
* New bindable function 'cycle' first centers the current row,
then moves it to the top of the viewport, then to the bottom
* It is bound by default to ^L.
* Option --listsyntaxes/-z lists the names of available syntaxes
* Wed May 01 2024 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 8.0:
* By default ^F is bound to starting a forward search, and ^B to
starting a backward search, while M-F and M-B repeat the search
in the corresponding direction. (See the documentation if you
want the old bindings back.)
* Command-line option --modernbindings (-/) makes ^Q quit, ^X cut,
^C copy, ^V paste, ^Z undo, ^Y redo, ^O open a file, ^W write a file,
^R replace, ^G find again, ^D find again backwards, ^A set the mark,
^T jump to a line, ^P show the position, and ^E execute.
* Above modern bindings are activated also when the name of
nano's executable (or a symlink to it) starts with the letter "e".
* To open a file at a certain line number, one can now use also
nano filename:number, besides nano +number filename.
* <Alt+Home> and <Alt+End> put the cursor on the first and last
row in the viewport, while retaining the horizontal position.
* When the three digits in an #RGB color code are all the same,
the code is mapped to the xterm grey scale, giving access to
fourteen levels of grey instead of just four.
* For easier access, M-" is bound to placing/removing an anchor,
and M-' to jumping to the next anchor.
* Whenever an error occurs, the keystroke buffer is cleared, thus
stopping the execution of a macro or a string bind.
* The mousewheel scrolls the viewport instead of moving the cursor.
* CVE-2024-5742: Avoid privilege escalations via symlink attacks
on emergency save file (boo#1226099)
* Fri Jan 20 2023 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- update to 7.2:
* <Shift+Insert> is prevented from pasting in view mode.
* Wed Dec 14 2022 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- update to 7.1:
* When --autoindent and --breaklonglines are combined, pressing
<Enter> at a specific position no longer eats characters.
* Wed Nov 16 2022 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- update to 7.0:
* String binds may contain bindable function names between braces
* Unicode codes can be entered (via M-V) without leading zeroes,
by finishing short codes with <Space> or <Enter>
* Word completion (^]) looks for candidates in all open buffers
* No regular expression matches the final empty line any more
* Wed Aug 03 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 6.4:
* The file browser does not crash when moving up to the root folder.
* Softwrapping very long lines is done more efficiently.
* Invoking the formatter does not blink the screen.
* Mon Jul 25 2022 Maurizio Galli <maurizio.galli@suse.com>
- Added obs-channel-and-patchinfo-syntax.patch to support syntax
highlighting for _channel and _patchinfo files used by OBS
* Fri Apr 29 2022 Martin Pluskal <mpluskal@suse.com>
- Update to version 6.3:
* For multiline regexes, text is now colored as soon a start
match is found, also when there is no end match at all.
* The colorizing of any line is stopped after two thousand bytes
to avoid frustrating delays.
* When environment variable NO_COLOR is set, the two default
colors (yellow for the spotlight, red for error messages) are
suppressed when no interface colors are specified in a nanorc
file.
* Full justification and piping the whole buffer through a
command now keep the cursor at the same line number.
* Utility 'xsel' can be used to copy a marked region to the
system's clipboard. See doc/sample.nanorc for an example.
* Fri Feb 18 2022 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 6.2
* The file browser clears the prompt bar also when using
- -minibar
* Linting now works also with a newer 'pyflakes'
* Thu Feb 10 2022 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU nano 6.1:
* The behavior of ^K at a prompt has been enhanced: when there
is text after the cursor, just this text is erased
* At a prompt, M-6 copies the current answer into the cutbuffer
* Large external pastes into nano are handled more quickly
