+GNU nano 2.7.2 "Shemesh! Shemesh!" brings another feature:
+the ability to complete with one keystroke (^] by default)
+a fragment of a word to a full word existing elsewhere in
+the current buffer. Besides, this release fixes two bugs
+related to using line numbers in softwrap mode, allows to
+use the PageUp and PageDown keys together with Shift on
+VTE-based terminals, stops the help lines from flickering
+during interactive replacing, makes a 'set fill' override
+an earlier 'set nowrap', properly restores the selected
+region after an external spell check, and improves a few
+other tidbits. If you should find any more bugs, please
+run 'man nano | grep bugs' and report them there.

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

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

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

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

+
+nano 2.6.1 "Stampede" is chiefly a translation update, but also
+adds one little feature (the ability to use negative numbers
+with Go To Line: -1 meaning the first line from the bottom),
+includes syntax highlighting for Rust, and fixes three tiny
+bugs (but in such far corners of the editor that they aren't
+even worth mentioning).
+
+
+
+2016 June 17
+
+nano 2.6.0 "Rubicon" fixes more than fifty little bugs -- and
+some of them not so little. It improves moving about in
+the file browser, corrects failings of the internal spell
+checker, adds a new feature (comment/uncomment lines, with
+default binding M-3), makes some error messages clearer,
+shows more of a file when positionlog is used and the cursor
+is near the end, displays all error messages at startup if
+there are multiple ones, does not misinterpret keystrokes
+when typing very fast, is less eager to trim the filename
+on narrow terminals, speeds up case-insensitive searches,
+and allows to abort re-searches. Among bunches of other
+things. It is worth the trouble to upgrade.
+
+And, with this release, we take leave of the herd...
+Bye! And thanks for all the grass!
