+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.
