+GNU nano 2.9.4 "Isabel" allows binding a key to a string
+(any piece of text and/or commands), permits customizing
+the color of error messages with 'set errorcolor', colors
+those error messages by default in bright white on red,
+makes <Enter> at the bottom of the screen scroll just one
+row when --smooth is used, does not fail when redoing a
+file insertion, and cancels a Shift-selection when any
+cursor key is pressed without Shift even when the cursor
+cannot move.  Further, it treats tabs fully the same as
+spaces when doing automatic hard-wrapping, allows syntax
+names to be unquoted, and removes two deprecated options
+and six deprecated bindable function names.

+GNU nano 2.9.3 "C&oacute;rdoba" fixes a segfault with trimblanks
+that could occur when a typed space caused the word after
+it to be pushed to the next line.  It further makes macros
+work also when your keyboard still emits escape sequences,
+adds the options -M and --trimblanks for the command line,
+recognizes key combos with Shift on a few more terminals,
+no longer shows dots in certain prompt texts when visible
+whitespace is turned on, fixes two corner cases when doing
+replacements in a marked region, allows to open a named
+pipe again when using --noread, and accurately detects
+a needed color change when a line contains a start match
+but not a corresponding end match any more.  Plus some
+other small fry.
