+Changes between v2.7.4 and v2.7.5:
+----------------------------------
+
+Benno Schulenberg (65):
+      bump version numbers and add a news item for the 2.7.5 release
+      files: leave out the confusing "[from ./]" when prompting for a command
+      general: stop the spell checker from crashing after the changes in search
+      justify: reduce the character count when trimming trailing spaces
+      painting: account for index maybe being zero after the preceding change
+      painting: advance only when both start /and/ end match are zero-length
+      painting: do not bluntly ignore zero-length start matches -- handle them
+      painting: do not let a match for 'end' overlap a match for 'start'
+      painting: don't look at the current multidata when coloring a line
+      painting: make use of the multidata of the preceding line

+      search: make the \b and \B anchors work correctly in both directions
+      spelling: correctly adjust the length of a single-line region
+      spelling: don't unnecessarily fiddle with the viewport

+2017.02.23 - GNU nano 2.7.5 "Nijntje" can properly search and replace
+		the \B and \b regex anchors, correctly repaints things
+		when multiline regexes with identical start and end are
+		involved, fixes a crash with zero-length regex matches,
+		does replacements at the edges of a marked region right,
+		no longer hides double-width characters at the head of
+		softwrapped rows, displays at most three warnings at
+		startup, and documents the ability to read a file from
+		standard input.  Come tickle my ears.
+
 2017.01.10 - GNU nano 2.7.4 "Red dress" undoes deletions in an orderly
 		manner again (bug was introduced in previous version),
 		sets the preferred x position for vertical movements

 <h2><a name="1.5"></a>1.5. Why the name change from TIP?</h2>
 <blockquote><p>On January 10, 2000, TIP was officially renamed to nano because of a namespace conflict with another program called 'tip'. The original 'tip' program &quot;establishes a full duplex terminal connection to a remote host&quot;, and was included with many older Unix systems (and newer ones like Solaris). The conflict was not noticed at first because there is no 'tip' utility included with most GNU/Linux distributions (where nano was developed).</p></blockquote>
 <h2><a name="1.6"></a>1.6. What is the current version of nano?</h2>
-<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>2.7.4</b>.  Of course, you should always check the <a href="https://nano-editor.org/">nano homepage</a> to see what the latest and greatest version is.</p></blockquote>
