+ * New saved cursor position history option. Command line option -P or --poslog, rc file
+ entry "poslog". Search history changes to ~/.nano/search_history, cursor position log
+ is ~/.nano/filepos_history. Added checks to move the legacy .nano_history file to the new
+ location. Several new functions to files.c: load_poshistory(), save_poshistory(),
+ check_poshistory(), update_poshistory(), and reworking of histfilename(). New FAQ entry
+ 4.15 discussing the change and offering an interoperability workaround.

* Initial libmagic implementation, adapted from Eitan Adler <eitanadlerlist@gmail.com>.
New nanorc entry "magic" to enable this functionality, nanorc file and man page updates.

+<blockquote><p>In nano 2.3.0, cursor position history was introduced, and both files now reside under a .nano directory in your home. Nano was trying to move this file into the new location so it could continue to use it. This means that if you try and use an earlier version of nano, it will be unable to see your previous search history. To fix this, run the following commands:<br>
+mv ~/.nano/search_history ~/.nano_history<br>
+ln -sf ~/.nano_history ~/.nano/search_history<br>
