+GNU nano 2.8.7 "Fragrance" fixes a lockup when tabs are
+wider than the screen, makes indenting + unindenting
+more predictable by retaining relative indentations,
+allows pasting (^U) at a prompt, allows triple quotes
+in Python to not be followed by a character, does not
+scroll three pages on a roll of the mouse wheel, binds
+Alt+Up and Alt+Down to findprevious and findnext, and
+fixes some hard-to-describe issues with softwrapping
+and boundary-crossing tabs.  Enjoy.

+
+GNU nano 2.8.6 "Kekul&eacute;" offers a new feature: the ability
+to do softwrapping between words -- at whitespace --
+instead of always at the edge of the screen.  This can
+be activated with -a or --atblanks or 'set atblanks'
+together with the softwrap option.  This release further
+fixes a handful of rare display glitches, fixes a build
+failure on AIX, harmonizes the quoting rules in the rc
+files, and renames the option 'cut' to 'cutfromcursor'
+(please update your nanorc files before 2020).

+GNU nano 2.8.5 "Farouche" avoids a crash when waking from
+a suspension that was induced from the outside, allows
+negative line and column numbers on the command line,
+avoids some flickering when resizing the screen while
+in the file browser, opens files in the order they were
+mentioned on the command line, and does not pretend to
+have woken from suspension when receiving a SIGCONT.

+GNU nano 2.8.4 "Our Version of Events" includes the nanorc
+man page again.

+
+GNU nano 2.8.3 "Hirsch" fixes a misplacement of the spotlight
+during interactive replacing, avoids build failures on AIX
+and Solaris, fixes a crash on Solaris, speeds up backwards
+searching, improves PHP syntax highlighting, and no longer
+asks "save anyway?" when the user ^Q discards the buffer.

+
+GNU nano 2.8.2 "Krats" adds another new feature: it makes
+the ^G help texts searchable with ^W.  Apart from that,
+it fixes a crash when resizing the window in the middle
+of verbatim input, avoids an unlikely crash when used
+without UTF-8 support in some locales, avoids redrawing
+the screen twice when switching between buffers while
+line numbers are active, and works around a coloring
+bug on musl.  Plus tweaks to the documentation; plus
+translation updates for fifteen languages.
