+2021 October 6 - GNU nano 5.9 "El manicomio ha decidido: mañana sol!"
+
+
+- The extension of a filename is added to the name of a corresponding
+ temporary file, so that spell checking a C file, for example, will check
+ only the comments and strings (when using 'aspell').
+- The process number is added to the name of an emergency save file,
+ so that when multiple nanos die they will not fight over a filename.
+- Undoing a cutting operation will restore an anchor that was located
+ in the cut area to its original line.
+- When using --locking, saving a new buffer will create a lock file.
+- Syntax highlighting for YAML files has been added.

+2021 June 15 - GNU nano 5.8 "Why is it necessary to be special?"
+
+
+- After a search, the spotlighting is dropped after 1.5 seconds (0.8
+ seconds with --quick) to avoid the idea that the text is selected.
+- A + and a space before a filename on the command line will put
+ the cursor at the end of the corresponding buffer.
+- Linter messages no longer include filename and line/column numbers.
+- Color name "grey" or "gray" can be used instead of "lightblack".
+- The color of the minibar can be chosen with 'set minicolor'.

+
+
+2021 April 29 - GNU nano 5.7 "Toți ceilalți arau câmpurile"
+
+
+- The output of --constantshow (without --minibar) is more stable.
+- When opening multiple buffers and there is an error message, this
+ message is shown again upon first switch to the relevant buffer.
+- The position and size of the indicator now follow actual lines,
+ instead of visual lines when in softwrap mode, meaning that the
+ size of the indicator can change when scrolling in softwrap mode.

+2021 March 3 - GNU nano 5.6.1 "Geelgors"
+
+
+- Search matches are properly colorized in softwrap mode too.
+- Option 'highlightcolor' has been renamed to 'spotlightcolor'.

+
+
+2021 February 24 - GNU nano 5.6 "Wielewaal"
+
+
+- A search match gets highlighted (in black on yellow by default),
+ in addition to placing the cursor at the start of the match.
+ The color combination can be changed with 'set highlightcolor'.
+ By default the cursor is hidden until the next keystroke, but
+ it can be forced on with --showcursor / 'set showcursor'.
+- Option --markmatch / 'set markmatch' has been removed.
+- Cursor position and character code are displayed in the minibar
+ only when option --constantshow / 'set constantshow' is used,
+ and their display can be toggled with M-C.
+- The state flags are displayed in the minibar only when option
+ --stateflags / 'set stateflags' is used.

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