+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.
  • +
+

+ +2020 December 2 - GNU nano 5.4 "Terre des hommes" +
+
    +
  • Moving the cursor now skips over combining characters (and
    + other zero-width characters). Deleting a character deletes
    + also any succeeding zero-width characters, but backspacing
    + deletes just one character at a time.
  • +
+

+ +2020 October 7 - GNU nano 5.3 "Revolution!" +
+
    +
  • Option 'set stateflags' makes nano show the state of auto-indenting,
    + the mark, hard-wrapping, macro recording, and soft-wrapping in the
    + title bar. The flags take the place of "Modified", and a modified
    + buffer is instead indicated by an asterisk (*) after its name.
  • +
  • Nano no longer by default tries using libmagic to determine the type
    + of a file (when neither filename nor first line gave a clue), because
    + in most cases it is a waste of time. It requires using the option
    + --magic or -! or 'set magic' to make nano try libmagic.
  • +
  • The color of the indicator can be changed with 'set scrollercolor'.
  • +
+

+ +2020 August 24 - GNU nano 5.2 "Ranrapalca" +
+
    +
  • Making certain replacements after a large paste does not crash.
  • +
  • Hitting a toggle at the Search prompt does not clear the answer.
  • +
  • Using --positionlog does not complain at the first start.
  • +
  • A macro containing a Search command will not sometimes fail.
  • +
+

+ 2020 August 12 - GNU nano 5.1 "Cantabria"
