- In the "nanorc" regexes, tweak the "color" regex to properly
color a line that specifies a background color without a
foreground color, and update the associated comments. Also,
tweak the "comment" regex to color comments that don't start
at the beginning of a line. (DLR)

<p>There's also the <b>--enable-tiny</b> option which disables everything above, as well as some larger chunks of the program (like the marker code that you use Control-^ to select with). Also, if you know you aren't going to be using other languages you can use <b>--disable-nls</b> to disable internationalization and save a few K to a few dozen K depending on if you have locale support on your system. And finally there's always good old <b>strip</b> to strip all debugging code and code that exists in libraries on your system.</p>

- <b>--enable-extra</b> Enable extra functions, including easter eggs

<b>--enable-nanorc</b> Enable use of .nanorc file
<b>--enable-color</b> Enable color and syntax highlighting
<b>--enable-multibuffer</b> Enable having multiple file buffers open

<h2><a name="3.7"></a>3.7. Tell me more about this multibuffer stuff!</h2>
-<blockquote><p>To use multiple file buffers, you must be using nano 1.1.0 or newer, and you must have configured nano with <b>--enable-multibuffer</b> or <b>--enable-extra</b> (use nano -V to check). Then when you want to enable inserting a file into its own buffer instead of into the current file, just hit <b>Meta-F</b>, then insert the file as normal with <b>^R</b>. If you always want files to be loaded into their own buffers, use the <b>--multibuffer</b> or <b>-F</b> flag when you invoke nano.</p>

<p>You can move between the buffers you have open with the <b>Meta-<</b> and <b>Meta-></b> keys, or more easily with <b>Meta-,</b> and <b>Meta-.</b> (clear as mud, right? =-). When you have more than one file buffer open, the ^X shortcut will say "Close", instead of the normal "Exit" when only one buffer is open.</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="3.8"></a>3.8. Tell me more about this verbatim input stuff!</h2>
<blockquote><p>To use verbatim input, you must be using nano 1.3.1 or newer. When you want to insert a literal character into the file you're editing, such as a control character that nano usually treats as a command, first press <b>Meta-V</b>. (If you're not at a prompt, you'll get the message "Verbatim Input".) Then press the key(s) that generate the character you want.</p>
