21 | GNU nano 2.7.1 "Leuven" adds an often-asked-for feature: the | |
22 | ability to display line numbers beside the text. This can | |
23 | be activated with -l or --linenumbers on the command line, | |
24 | or with 'set linenumbers' in your nanorc, or toggled with | |
25 | M-#. The coloring of these numbers can be chosen via the | |
26 | option 'set numbercolor'. This release furthermore fixes | |
27 | some bugs with scrolling in softwrap mode, is more strict | |
28 | in the parsing of key rebindings, and marks a new buffer | |
29 | as modified when the output of a command (^R ^X) has been | |
30 | read into it. Come and check it out! | |

36 | GNU nano 2.7.0 "Suni" adds a new feature: allowing text to be | |
37 | selected by holding Shift together with the cursor keys. | |
38 | Besides that, nano now works also when run in very tiny | |
39 | terminals (down to one line, one column), and improves | |
40 | the handling of the prompt in cramped spaces. Not much, | |
41 | but it's time to get it out there. | |
42 | ||
43 | With this release we return to GNU. For just a little while | |
44 | we dreamt we were tigers. But we are back in the herd, | |
45 | back to a healthy diet of fresh green free grass. | |

51 | nano 2.6.3 "Marika" makes the Ctrl+Arrow keys work also on | |
52 | a Linux virtual console, takes as verbatim only the very | |
53 | first keystroke after M-V, removes any lock files that it | |
54 | holds when dying, doesn't abort when a word contains digits | |
55 | (when using the default speller), fixes a small sorting bug | |
56 | in the file browser, makes searching case-insensitively in | |
57 | a UTF-8 locale a little faster, and doesn't enter invalid | |
58 | bytes when holding down both Alt keys. Santé! | |

64 | nano 2.6.2 "Le vent nous portera" adds two new features: the | |
65 | keystrokes Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down for jumping between blocks | |
66 | of text, and the option 'wordchars' for specifying which | |
67 | characters (beside alphanumeric ones) should be considered | |
68 | word-forming. Further, it provides feedback during Unicode | |
69 | input (M-V followed by a six-digit hexadecimal number which | |
70 | must start with 0 or 10), avoids a crash when resizing the | |
71 | window during Verbatim input, doesn't drop a keystroke after | |
72 | having been suspended, and replaces the beginning-of-line | |
73 | anchor (^) just once per line. There are also several tiny | |
74 | improvements in screen rendering and key handling. | |
75 | Come get your hair tousled! | |

81 | nano 2.6.1 "Stampede" is chiefly a translation update, but also | |
82 | adds one little feature (the ability to use negative numbers | |
83 | with Go To Line: -1 meaning the first line from the bottom), | |
84 | includes syntax highlighting for Rust, and fixes three tiny | |
85 | bugs (but in such far corners of the editor that they aren't | |
86 | even worth mentioning). | |

92 | nano 2.6.0 "Rubicon" fixes more than fifty little bugs -- and | |
93 | some of them not so little. It improves moving about in | |
94 | the file browser, corrects failings of the internal spell | |
95 | checker, adds a new feature (comment/uncomment lines, with | |
96 | default binding M-3), makes some error messages clearer, | |
97 | shows more of a file when positionlog is used and the cursor | |
98 | is near the end, displays all error messages at startup if | |
99 | there are multiple ones, does not misinterpret keystrokes | |
100 | when typing very fast, is less eager to trim the filename | |
101 | on narrow terminals, speeds up case-insensitive searches, | |
102 | and allows to abort re-searches. Among bunches of other | |
103 | things. It is worth the trouble to upgrade. | |
104 | ||
105 | And, with this release, we take leave of the herd... | |
106 | Bye! And thanks for all the grass! | |
