+<li>When something is pasted into nano, auto-indentation is suppressed,<br>
+  and the paste can be undone as a whole with a single <tt>M-U</tt>.</li>
+<li>When a lock file is encountered during startup, pressing <tt>^C</tt>/Cancel<br>
+  quits nano.  (Pressing 'No' just skips the file and continues.)</li>
+<li>Shift+Meta+letter key combos can be bound with 'bind Sh-M-letter'.<br>

+<li>A custom nanorc file can be specified on the command line, with<br>
