2019.10.04 - GNU nano 4.5 "Košice" • The new 'tabgives' command allows you to specify per syntax what the <Tab> key should produce: some spaces, a hard TAB, ... • The output of --help is properly aligned again for all languages. • <Tab> will indent a marked region also when M-} has been rebound.
GNU nano is a simple and easy-to-use editor for on the terminal. https://nano-editor.org/ https://nano-editor.org/manual.html A concise overview of nano's shortcut keystrokes:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56846 (column was not retained after +/string) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56902 (filename could fail to match syntax) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56928 (output of --help was misaligned) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56930 (untranslated word in --help output) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56960 (with M-} rebound, <Tab> did not indent) Changes between v4.4 and v4.5: ------------------------------ Dirkjan Ochtman (1): syntax: rust: add the words reserved in 2018, and remove unreserved ones Brand Huntsman (1): search: accept a match at start of file when searching from command line Benno Schulenberg (62): bindings: add a dedicated keycode for <Tab> for when a region is marked bump version numbers and add a news item for the 4.5 release color: don't concatenate an absolute path with the working directory docs: add two examples of the 'tabgives' command to the sample nanorc docs: describe the new syntax-specific 'tabgives' command docs: mark the undoing of justifications as done in the TODO list docs: mention that gcc must be at least version 5.0 gnulib: update to its current upstream state mouse: make the clickable width of menu items more consistent new feature: a 'tabgives' command to define what the Tab key produces oops: fix typo in Changelog po: update translations and regenerate POT file and PO files search: after search-at-startup, store the column (for vertical movement) tweaks: add a translator hint, and correct two others tweaks: add some translator hints, be more precise on permissible length tweaks: add two hints for translators, to try and help avoid mistakes tweaks: adjust indentation after previous change, reshuffle declarations tweaks: avoid a comparison between signed and unsigned [coverity]

free() into a single one, to elide an 'else' tweaks: move a fragment of common code into the appropriate function tweaks: move a function to a better file, to be amongst its kind tweaks: move a function to before its callers and next to its kind tweaks: move two functions to after the ones that they call tweaks: remove some timing code that has served its purpose tweaks: remove two superfluous macros, as sizeof(char) is always 1 tweaks: rename a function, to be a bit more fitting tweaks: rename another type, again to better fit the general pattern tweaks: rename another type, to also better fit the general pattern tweaks: rename another variable, for a better fit tweaks: rename a type, to better fit the general pattern tweaks: rename a variable, normalize a comment, and
