+2021 January 14 - <b>GNU nano 5.5</b> "Rebecca"
+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>Option 'set minibar' makes nano suppress the title bar and instead<br>
+    show a bar with basic editing information at the bottom: file name<br>
+    (plus an asterisk when the buffer is modified), the cursor position<br>
+    (line,column), the character under the cursor (U+xxxx), the flags<br>
+    that <tt>--stateflags</tt> normally shows, plus the percentage of the buffer<br>
+    that is above the cursor.</li>
+<li>With 'set promptcolor' the color combination of the prompt bar can<br>
+    be changed, to allow contrasting it with the mini bar (which always<br>
+    has the same color as the title bar).</li>
+<li>Option 'set markmatch' highlights the result of a successful search<br>
+    by putting the mark at the end of the match, making the match more<br>
+    visible.  It also suppresses the cursor until the next keystroke.<br>
+    (If you dislike the hiding of the cursor, use 'set showcursor'.)</li>
+<li>The bindable toggle 'nowrap' has been renamed to 'breaklonglines',<br>
+    to match the corresponding option, like for all other toggles.</li>
+<li>Support for Slang has been removed.</li>
