2022.02.09 - GNU nano 6.1 "Rețelele de socializare sunt ca un frigider"
• The behavior of ^K at a prompt has been enhanced: when there is text after the cursor, just this text is erased. (In the usual situation, however, when the cursor is at the end of the answer, the behavior is as before: the whole answer is erased.) • At a prompt, M-6 copies the current answer into the cutbuffer. • Large external pastes into nano are handled more quickly. 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://nano-editor.org/cheatsheet.html The tarball and its signature are here: https://nano-editor.org/dist/v6/nano-6.1.tar.xz https://nano-editor.org/dist/v6/nano-6.1.tar.xz.asc Specific issues that were addressed in this release: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61702 (answer at prompt could not be copied) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61719 (build failure on Darwin) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61822 (pasting into nano was too slow) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61883 (cancelling an overwrite could exit) https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61962 (spotlight could be wrong after macro) Changes between v6.0 and v6.1: ------------------------------ Benno Schulenberg (38): build: fix compilation when configured with --enable-tiny build: prevent autopoint from overwriting a newer M4 file from gnulib bump version numbers and add a news item for the 6.1 release copyright: update the last year for significantly changed files copyright: update the years for the FSF docs: mention bindable function 'zero', for toggling the interface bars docs: mention 'set guidestripe' and 'set unix' in the sample nanorc docs: remove obsolete Ctrl+Z from the cheatsheet; mention Alt+X instead files: let ^C cancel the exiting when the file on disk was changed gnulib: update to its current upstream state help: make the description of <Tab> more accurate help: update the description of M-D, to match the actual order of counts input: instead of moving waiting keycodes, just increment a pointer input: suppress any spotlighting when there are more keycodes waiting menus: don't show M-6 in the help lines of any prompt po: update translations and regenerate POT file and PO files prompt: allow the user to copy the answer to the cutbuffer (with M-6) prompt: let ^K erase text after cursor (if any), otherwise whole answer tweaks: add some feedback to the autogen.sh script, to ease the wait tweaks: add some small, clarifying comments tweaks: adjust a translator hint, to fit the order in the POT file tweaks: drop foreign M-U and M-R from among the sample CUA bindings tweaks: remove a redundant check -- add a different one for symmetry tweaks: remove two redundant checks tweaks: rename a function and its two parameters, for clarity tweaks: rename a function and reshuffle its call tweaks: rename a function, to not contain the name of a variable tweaks: rename another variable, to better fit in with its sisters tweaks: rename a variable and a parameter, to be more descriptive tweaks: rename a variable, away from an abbreviation tweaks: rename a variable, for clarity and contrast tweaks: rename a variable, to make it clearer it refers to a window tweaks: rename two variables, and elide a near-enough duplicate tweaks: reshuffle some sample bindings, to group them differently tweaks: reword two comments, and rename a variable (away from an abbrev) tweaks: stop asking the terminal for its new size -- let ncurses do it tweaks: use some symbolic names instead of unclear numeric values tweaks: when discarding keycodes, don't bother parsing them -- Benno
