+GNU nano 1.3.0 - 2003.10.22
- General:
- Complete overhaul and abstraction of the lowest level of
keyboard input, mostly rewritten but incorporating a few bits
+2003.10.22 - GNU nano 1.3.0 is loosed upon the world. This is the first
+ release in the unstable 1.3.x series, and as such it
+ includes a lot of new features, including the addition
+ of a -d option for those FreeBSD users with Backspace
+ keys that act like Delete keys, the ability to repeat
+ the last search without prompting, the ability to search
+ for the beginning or end of a paragraph, new smooth
+ paging routines to go with the smooth scrolling
+ routines, and various improvements to the input and
+ display routines to make them behave more intuitively.
+ It also includes the usual load of bugfixes. Enjoy.

2003.08.11 - GNU nano 1.2.2 is released, only four months since the

<h2><a name="1.5"></a>1.5. Why the name change from TIP?</h2>
<blockquote><p>On January 10, 2000, TIP was officially renamed to nano because of a namespace conflict with another program called 'tip'. The original 'tip' program "establishes a full duplex terminal connection to a remote host", and was included with many older Unix systems (and newer ones like Solaris). The conflict was not noticed at first because there is no 'tip' utility included with most GNU/Linux distributions (where nano was developed).</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="1.6"></a>1.6. What is the current version of nano?</h2>
-<blockquote><p>The current version of nano *should* be 1.2.2. Of course you should always check the nano homepage to see what the latest and greatest version is.</p></blockquote>
