* For multiline regexes, text is now colored as soon a start
match is found, also when there is no end match at all.
* The colorizing of any line is stopped after two thousand bytes
to avoid frustrating delays.
* When environment variable NO_COLOR is set, the two default
colors (yellow for the spotlight, red for error messages) are
suppressed when no interface colors are specified in a nanorc
file.
* Full justification and piping the whole buffer through a
command now keep the cursor at the same line number.
* Utility 'xsel' can be used to copy a marked region to the
system's clipboard. See doc/sample.nanorc for an example.

- GNU nan0 5.3:
* 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'.

- GNU nano 5.0:
* With --indicator (or -q or 'set indicator') nano will show a kind
of scrollbar on the righthand side of the screen to indicate where
in the buffer the viewport is located and how much it covers.
* With <Alt+Insert> any line can be "tagged" with an anchor, and
<Alt+PageUp> and <Alt+PageDown> will jump to the nearest anchor.
When using line numbers, an anchor is shown as "+" in the margin.
* The Execute Command prompt is now directly accessible from the
main menu (with ^T, replacing the Spell Checker). The Linter,
Formatter, Spell Checker, Full Justification, Suspension, and
Cut-Till-End functions are available in this menu too.
* On terminals that support at least 256 colors, nine new color
names are available: pink, purple, mauve, lagoon, mint, lime,
peach, orange, and latte. These do not have lighter versions.
* For the color names red, green, blue, yellow, cyan, magenta,
white, and black, the prefix 'light' gives a brighter color.
Prefix 'bright' is deprecated, as it means both bold AND light.
* All color names can be preceded with "bold," and/or "italic,"
(in that order) to get a bold and/or italic typeface.
* With --bookstyle (or -O or 'set bookstyle') nano considers any
line that begins with whitespace as the start of a paragraph.
* Refreshing the screen with ^L now works in every menu.
* In the main menu, ^L also centers the line with the cursor.
* Toggling the help lines with M-X now works in all menus except
in the help viewer and the linter.
* At a filename prompt, the first <Tab> lists the possibilities,
and these are listed near the bottom instead of near the top.
* Bindable function 'curpos' has been renamed to 'location'.
* Long option --tempfile has been renamed to --saveonexit.
* Short option -S is now a synonym of --softwrap.
* The New Buffer toggle (M-F) has become non-persistent. Options
--multibuffer and 'set multibuffer' still make it default to on.
* Backup files will retain their group ownership (when possible).
* Data is synced to disk before "... lines written" is shown.
* The raw escape sequences for F13 to F16 are no longer recognized.
* Distro-specific syntaxes, and syntaxes of less common languages,
have been moved down to subdirectory syntax/extra/. The affected
distros and others may wish to move wanted syntaxes one level up.
Syntaxes for Markdown, Haskell, and Ada were added.

* At startup, the cursor can be put on the first or last
occurrence of a string by preceding the filename with +/string
or +?string.
* When automatic hard-wrapping occurs (--breaklonglines), any
leading quoting characters will be automatically copied to the
new line.
* M-6 works again also when the cursor is at end of buffer.

* An overlong line is no longer automatically hard-wrapped.
* Smooth scrolling (one line at a time) has become the default.
* A newline character is no longer automatically added at end of buffer.
* The line below the title bar is by default part of the editing space.
* Option --breaklonglines (-b) turns automatic hard-wrapping back on.
* Option --jumpyscrolling (-j) gives the chunky, half-screen scrolling.
* Option --finalnewline (-f) brings back the automatic newline at EOF.
* Option --emptyline (-e) leaves the line below the title bar unused.
* <Alt+Up> and <Alt+Down> now do a linewise scroll instead of a findnext.
* Any number of justifications can be undone (like all other operations).
* When marked text is justified, it becomes a single, separate paragraph.
* Option --guidestripe=<number> draws a vertical bar at the given column.
* Option --fill=<number> no longer turns on automatic hard-wrapping.
* When a line continues offscreen, it now ends with a highlighted ">".
* The halfs of a split two-column character are shown as "[" and "]".
* A line now scrolls horizontally one column earlier.
* The bindable functions 'cutwordleft' and 'cutwordright' were renamed to 'chopwordleft' and 'chopwordright' as they don't use the cutbuffer.
* The paragraph-jumping functions were moved from Search to Go-to-Line.
* Option --rebinddelete is able to compensate for more misbindings.
* Options --morespace and --smooth are obsolete and thus ignored.
* The --disable-wrapping-as-root configure option was removed.

* 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
* fixes some hard-to-describe issues with softwrapping and
boundary-crossing tabs.
