2003.02.03 - GNU nano 1.1.99pre2 "bugs in my pockets, bugs in my
shoes" is released. There are, not suprisingly,
only bugfixes in this release as we move toward the
stable 1.2.0 release. Fixes are included for
translable string format, subexpression replacement,
constant cursor position, invalid search regexes,
justify, screen state on SIGHUP and SIGTERM, cutting
to end cuts with long lines, many file browser and
operating directory bugs, memory and file descriptor
leaks, marker code, spell checker, the mouse code
with long lines, multiple buffers and non-file
open errors, replacement string length, and a
silly but serious history message crash. There is
also a drastic improvement in CPU utliization for
the color regex code.
Depending on the number of bugs found in this
release, there may be a 1.1.99pre3 or RC1, or just
a 1.2.0 release. Most of the major bugs seem to have
been worked out, so if you are waiting for a good time
to test nano before the official 1.2.0 release, this
would be the one to use. Happy bug hunting!
2003.01.17 - GNU nano 1.1.99pre1 "enough already" has been released.
This release is, barring bug fixes and documentation
updates, what version 1.2.0 has looked like, feature
wise. There will very likely be bugs, just due the
volume of changes made in this release. Search
and replace string history has been added, including an
option to log history to ~/.nano_history (-H,
--historylog). Because of this, the pico incompatible
search/replace string behavior that used to be the
default has been deleted. The old "pico" flag (-p)
is now compatible with Pico's "preserve" mode for
allowing flow control characters; by default this
version ignores both ^Q and ^S. The
--disable-wrapping-as-root configure option has been
forward ported from version 1.0.x, and a new flag to
enable all extra options (--enable-all) has been added.
The internal spell checker has been improved, meaning
you will now be prompted only once for each unique
capitalization of a given word.
There have also been lots of bug fixes,
including the "trying to insert a directory name in
multibuffer mode bug", the ugly spell checker scrolling,
the color code, cutting text crashes, justification,
deleting the "magic line" via replace, and cursor
positioning on the statusbar. There have also been
the usual helping of translation and documentation
updates.
Please send all new feedback on this release
direct to the development list (nano-devel@gnu.org).
10/24/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.12 "Make Jordi happy" is released. This
release demonstrated that nano is starting to freeze for
version 1.2. New features include a Meta-Y toggle
for syntax highlighting, pluralized i18n, and a handler
for SIGTERM. Nano now ignores XOFF (^S) to stop
accidental lock-ups, and no longer references malloc.h.
Also included are fixes for zero-length regex
matches, segfaults with --disable-mouse, justification,
memory corruption with the browser, version and help
cmdline output, and translation updates. Aside from
the (currently up in the air) search history behavior,
the next version of nano should be 1.1.99pre1. Have
fun!
10/01/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.11 "Oddball" is released. This release
features a new version of gettext, a new and improved syntax
highlighting engine, and some updates for the nanorc.sample
file. The toggles for case sensitivity (Meta-C) and regular
expressions (Meta-R) have changed in the search and replace
prompts, multibuffer status is now displayed and can be
toggled from the insert file menu, and some wrapping behavior
that changed in 1.1.10 has reverted. The --enable-color
warning was also made less severe, as the color syntax code
has improved, and nano now uses extended regexes in the
.nanorc file.
Also included are fixes for various memory leaks,
the operating directory option, username tab completion,
the page_up and down arrow, go to previous word and next
word, nanorc parser and line wrapping code. Have fun!
07/25/2002 - At long last! GNU nano 1.1.10 "What didn't we break?" is
released. This version of GNU nano features version
0.11.2 of gettext, building with automake 1.6, some new
code for displaying control characters, browser
improvements, a new backup file option (-B, --backup),
a new option to ignore rc files (-I,--ignorercfiles),
compatibility with -pedantic, handling null characters
before EOF, a slightly sportier nanorc.sample and more.
Fixes are included included for justification, the
reading and writing file routines, resizing and fill
length, millions of memory leaks, the usage screen was
updated, and the the --quotestr and --regexp really work
now ;-) Enjoy :)
05/12/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.9 is released, happy Mother's Day! This release
includes many new features, including a prepend mode
(^O,M-P), a new "syntax" command in the .nanorc to allow
multiple syntax highlighting types, and a new -Y, --syntax
flag to set a specific one if there's no filename regex to
match it against (i.e. w/mutt). The ^space and M-space keys
will now show up in the help menu, which itself has been
tweaked a bit, and many more configure options should now
cooperate (like the odd pairing of --enable-tiny and
--enable-multibuffer). The marker should now work
when using multiple buffers, and the huge memory leak in
color syntax highlighting has been fixed. A lot of
new stuff for everyone's favorite text editor ;) Have fun!
03/30/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.8 is released. New features include an
"Insert Output of External Command", ^R^X, and a .spec
file is now included in the distribution. There are
cleanups in the usage code, fixes for regex parsing,
the file browser, the NO_CONVERT auto-detect, indented
justification, the internal spell checker, and a serious
bug where reading a file of 0 lines would hang nano.
Also, the "show position" code now shows the starting
column as 1 instead of 0. Have fun!
03/05/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.7 "lets change everything and see what breaks"
is released. New features include new flags
-N,--noconvert to stop any file format conversion and
-Q, --quotestr for the new quoted text justification,
a new tempnam() implementation to avoid silly warnings,
DOS and Mac file options in the Write File dialog,
multiple save files (file.1) for abnormal exits, ^C
now shows column as well as character position, and
multibuffer allows duplicate files, even unnamed ones.
Also, the static shortcut and toggle lengths are
history, nano now reads $SYSCONFDIR/nanorc if rc file
support is enabled, and nano is now built with (and
requires for rebuilding) autoconf 2.5.
This release also includes fixes for some memory
leaks, detecting DOS and mac file format, justification,
suspending keys, search & replace under various
conditions, variable width for shortcuts, and the usual
ton of translation updates.
01/25/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.6 is released. Lots of new features in this
release. New Meta-keys were added as alternates for
control sequences: Meta-A for the marker key (^^), and
Meta-G for the 'goto dir' key in the file browser (^_).
The color syntax highlighting now supports multiple
lines via start="regex" end="regex" syntax, and the
.nanorc regex format itself has changed. Also, the
gettext code was upgraded to version 0.10.40, and nano
will now display a message if only occurrence of a
given search exists.
For bugfixes, there are fixes for spelling,
stray newlines in the usage() function, suspend issues
with tcsh, auto-indent and wrapping clashes, ugly code
in rcfile.c, global variable compatibility with AIX.
There are also oodles of translation updates.
Have fun with it.
01/05/2002 - GNU nano 1.1.5 is out. The main new feature in this
release is the changed behavior of the keypad. Nano now
does the Right Thing and used keypad() by default. If
you wish to use the keypad arrow keys in certain
terminals, you may use the -K or --keypad flag to
use the old behavior. Users of other OSes should see
better handling of their non-keypad keys in this
release. Other changes include more Hurd fixes, fixes
parsing the .nanorc, display fixes for the color syntax
highlighting, gettext stabilization and many translation
updates. This is almost like a stable release, much like
in the 0.9.x series when every other release was the
most stable one :) Have fun!
12/11/2001 - GNU nano 1.1.4 is released. This release contains
rudimentary color syntax support (but it's still
broken), compatibility fixes for the Hurd and FreeBSD,
spell checker and wrapping fixes, and more. It seems
that the amount of interest in the code is inversely
proportional to the amount of time since last release,
so it's time to show the world all the changes since
1.1.3 ;) Have fun with it!
10/26/2001 - GNU nano 1.1.3 is released. As far as new features go,
the help system is now available for all functions in the
editor. Also, nano will also now print a message on
the status bar when it automatically converts a file from
Mac or DOS format, and trying to load a file that
has already been loaded in multibuffer mode will now also
cause an error message. There is now a "goto previous
word" which you can use by hitting Meta-Space Bar.
As for fixes, a SEVERE bug in the
null_at code which discarded the memory address of
reallocated memory has been fixed. This is probably
the biggest bug fix in well over the last year of
development. There are also some display fixes for when
the screen shouldn't center itself on cut or uncut text.
Also, the comments in the header files incorectly said
that nano was distributed under version 1 of the GPL when
the accompanying license was the GPLv2.
If you're using nano-1.1, it is highly
recommended you upgrade to this release. If using 1.0,
wait for version 1.0.6 which should be available early
next week. Enjoy!
10/03/2001 - GNU nano 1.1.2 is out there. Many new features in this
release, including support for auto-converting from
DOS and Mac formatted files, as well as toggles for
writing out files in these formats. Pico's -o flag has
been implemented, as has some new smooth scrolling code
(which can be used in place of the default jerky scrolling
behavior). Also, there is now a "find matching
bracket/brace/etc" feature (Meta-]). The .nanorc file
now accepts setting the tabsize, and the help text at the
bottom of the editor is now better spaced out in the
search/replace prompts. There are also the usual helping
of bugfixes, translation updates and, surely a bug or two.
You better get ready!
07/28/2001 - GNU nano 1.1.1 is released. Our second 1.1 unstable release
features many bugfixes from the initial release, in
particular fixes for the multibuffer code, and various
compiler macro fixes. The shortcut lists for
the search and replace prompts are a little more logical
(with cancel the last option again), and the included
gettext was re-downgraded to 0.10.35 due to problems
on the PPC platform. GNU nano now includes its own
aclocal macros in the m4/ directory to allow rebuilding
the configure script to work on platforms regardless of
their gettext version.
07/15/2001 - GNU nano 1.1.0 is released. This is the first release
in the 1.1.x unstable series of GNU nano. It
incorporates all changes up to the 1.0.3 release,
and also includes many many new features, including
appending to as well as overwriting files, writing
marked text to a separate file, dynamic wrap length,
lots more compatibility with Pico, and new optional
features like .nanorc file support and multiple file
buffers! All in all, plenty of new stuff that's sure
to introduce lots of bugs ;-) Have fun with it, but
be careful, unstable means unstable.
04/06/2001 - GNU nano 1.0.1 is out there. The only new feature is a
configure option for those who want to disable all
word wrapping from nano, --disable-wrapping. Bug fixes
this release include some bugs with autoconf and i18n,
and several fixes in the file browser including a
segfault on Solaris, symlinks to directories now work
properly, and nano now sorts files case insensitively
like pilot. Have fun with it.
03/22/2001 - GNU Nano 1.0 is released! The autoindent wrapping bug
has been fixed, as well as strange bug when using Pico
mode and regex search. There have also been some minor
spelling and documentation updates. As stated on the
website, there are currently no known bugs with nano, but
some will pop up eventually and they will be addressed in
subsequent releases. We hope you enjoy this first stable
release of nano, and as always, feedback is welcome!
nano@nano-editor.org.
02/19/2001 - Nano 0.9.99pre3 brings a lot of changes! The most important
being that nano is now officially a GNU program. Some
changes have been made for GNU compatibility (like the
default list of shortcuts, "^G Get Help" is now Listed and
"^_ Goto Line" is not). The Yes/No/All keys have
finally been internationalized also. All in all, quite
a few changes, considering nano is supposed to be in a code
freeze. But there are the usual helping of bugfixes, a
nasty bug when cutting text in -k mode and some
compatibility issues with older ncurses libraries have also
been fixed. All in all, a lot to see.
01/31/2001 - Nano 0.9.99pre2 is released. Not surprisingly, all that is
new is bugfixes, bugfixes, bugfixes. There were a few
cleanups in unneeded global variables and duplicate
functions, but most is just fixing. Specifically, there
is now a preliminary (read: needs testing) fix for
resizing the editor in any mode other than normal edit
mode. Other fixes include some more tab completion
segfaults, and an silly segfault that occurred when
successfully writing a file on the 2nd try (i.e. after an
initial write error). Slowly but surely, on toward 1.0 we
travel.
01/17/2001 - Nano 0.9.99pre1 is released. This is the first pre-1.0
release of nano, and is also the first release since the
code freeze for nano 1.0. Don't expect (or request) any
new features between now and nano 1.0, only bugfixes,
optimizations and doc/translation updates. For fixes, a
nasty segfault when trying to insert one's home directory
(~), some checks for the NumLock key making the keypad
go awry, window size sanity checks, many autoconf fixes,
and support for the KDE konsole keypad layout. Have fun.
01/07/2001 - Nano 0.9.25 is the "Just one more feature I swear!" release.
It includes one new feature that Pico has had forever, a
built-in file browser. Since not everyone may want this
option, there is a --disable-browser option to the
configure script as well. Other changes include slightly
different keypad handling, and a bugfix for crashes when
tab completion in certain instances. Have fun and Happy
New Year!
12/18/2000 - Nano 0.9.24 is released. This version contains the last of
the security fixes for writing files, as well as for a
nasty segfault when nano is unable to open a file for
reading, among other fixes. Nano also now cowardly
refuses to open device files, to stop silly things like
trying to open /dev/zero. New features include being
Able to use Meta-Meta-<key> as Control-<key>, better
HURD support, and some new flags have been added for Pico
compatibility. Upgrading to this version is highly
recommended.
12/08/2000 - Nano 0.9.23 is the "race conditions bite" release. The
main reason for this release is the less-than-optimal
fix for the security issue in nano with following symbolic
links. Hopefully this will fix the problem permanently.
The --nofollow option also works again for those who
are real security nuts. There are also some display and
search fixes, and the --disable-spell function was renamed
to --disable-speller to be in line with nano and Pico's
"speller" term.
12/02/2000 - Nano 0.9.22 is released, with many more changes and
additions than imaginable. The most important change is
a fix for unsafe handling of symbolic links which could
lead to symlink attacks if nano were to exit because
of an error or signal. Also there are better checks when
saving files.
As for new features, username tab completion is
now working well, the internal spell checker code has been
tweaked, you can now unjustify if you don't like how the
justify formatted your text, and there are more
options for configure, including --disable-spell and
--disable-justify and --enable-extra (for those who like
surprises). All in all, a whole lot of changes in
a little over a week.
11/23/2000 - Happy Thanksgiving! Nano 0.9.21 is our "last version was
a big turkey" release. It fixes several bugs introduced
by the previous version, as well as a few long-
standing display bugs. All 0.9.20 users are strongly
encouraged to upgrade to this release.
11/18/2000 - Nano 0.9.20 is finally out the door. Probably the biggest
change is the brand new way nano displays previous search
and replace strings (they are now editable!) This is a
break from Pico's (inconsistent) interface, so if you
don't like the new way, "Pico" mode (-p on the command
line or Meta-P within nano) still works the "old"
way.
Other new features include being able to deal with
search strings of any length, a new internal spell feature
(courtesy of Mr. Rocco Corsi) and tab completion when
reading in or writing out files! There's also the usual
billion or so bug fixes. Feedback on this release is
welcome because so much has changed, especially with the
previous string display in search and replace. Email ->
nano@nano-editor.org <-. If you like something, don't like
something, or just want to order a pizza, let us know!
10/02/2000 - Nano 0.9.19 is the "Chris is getting married in less than
a week and needs a distraction" release. There are only
a few actual code changes, mainly portability and compiler
warning fixes. Nano now also supports PDCurses, which
enables easily-built nano executables for Windows NT
and 95/98 for the brave. The official nano site has
changed (again) as well, check out www.nano-editor.org for
all the latest nano schtuff.
09/18/2000 - Nano 0.9.18 is unleashed. It has some new keyboard
handling code, cygwin support out of the box, and
a more portable handler for the NOHELP toggle. There
is also a fix for a somewhat serious bug whereby trying
to insert a directory instead of a normal file would
destroy the contents of the editor. A must-see. Four
stars.
09/04/2000 - Nano 0.9.17, the Labor Day release, is released after a
quiet spell (almost an entire month since last release!)
New features include better (not yet perfect) binary
display support and toggle support for most of the program
flags (M-c, M-i, M-z, M-x, M-p, M-w, M-m, M-k and M-e for
-c, -i, -x, -p, -w, -k, and -R).
08/09/2000 - Nano 0.9.16, after some struggling, is released. This release
should fix a few of the holes that 0.9.15 dug. The
"cutting text on the first line" bug is fixed, as is the
"cutting text on the last line" bug. Nice symmetry there
huh? Also the --tabsize argument should now work as well
as by using -T.
08/03/2000 - Nano 0.9.15 is the "I can't think of a release description"
release. There are the usual gala of display bugfixes,
a fix for the the nasty bug in -k mode that could create a
loop in the file being edited, and some other code
cleanup. Also, the -T option should now work regardless
of the curses library used. Yay.
07/27/2000 - Nano 0.9.14 is officially the "13 is so unlucky it should
be skipped as a version number" release. One typo
caused unending problems (calling nano with either -t or
-k caused both flags to be used). The -k code is also now
closer in functionality to Pico's -k mode; please
note that this code is not finished yet. Working on this
code has made me realize that there is not enough
abstraction in the code, and I will be working on that
for the next release. Until then, have fun with this
version.
07/23/2000 - Nano 0.9.13 has a few new bits and bobs, most notably the
-k option from Pico (cut to end of line). The majority
of changes in this release are bugfixes, however, including
the usual display fixes and fixes for writing to symbolic
links and un-writable files. Barring any other major
changes, this should be the feature set for nano 1.0,
whenever it might be released =-)
07/07/2000 - Nano 0.9.12 (The "lucky day" release) is bursting with new
features, bug fixes, and yummy fruit flavor. For
changes, the alternate replace keystroke ^W^T is now
^W^R to be compatible with later versions of Pico.
^W^T is now goto line, again for Pico compatibility.
As for new features, the wonderful/hated magic line
code has returned with a vengeance! Also, regular
expression searches and replaces have been incorporated
via the -R flag. And, of course, there are the usual
helping of display and other bug fixes to top it all
off.
06/20/2000 - Nano 0.9.11 presents drastic rewrites of the most buggy
routines in the program, specifically the wrapping code
and almost all of the display routines. There are many
improvements and bugfixes to the display subsystem in
general, but there may be bugs lurking yet. Also, after
many MANY requests, there is now an option to set the
displayed tab width (-T, --tabsize). Note that
this function just changes the way tabs LOOK in the
editor, the tabs you input are still real tabs of normal
width (usually 8 characters); nano just makes them look
smaller or bigger while in the editor. New in the
translation department is an Indonesian translation (id).
06/06/2000 - Nano 0.9.10 is primarily a bugfix for the loss of SIGINT when
using "run and terminate" flags (for example, --help).
There are also some minor documentation updates. This
version of nano is the most stable in quite some time, and
is likely to be the most stable for awhile. Users are
encouraged to upgrade to this version.
05/31/2000 - Nano 0.9.9 introduces much better working i18n support,
more portability, and a ton of bugfixes. While
nano is not likely anywhere near 1.0 in terms of
code quality, it gets a quantum leap closer with this
release.
05/18/2000 - Nano 0.9.8 (the 'what broke now?' release) should fix
the resize crash people have been experiencing. It also
offers a new input method that should allow nano to do
things the right way (like ^S, ^Q, custom suspend keys)
and hopefully won't break with non-US keyboards. There
are also the obligatory display fixes and speedups. Have
fun with it.
05/14/2000 - Nano 0.9.7 (the Mother's Day release) continues in the long
line of display fixes, and also fixes the broken symlink
behavior (i.e. symlinks weren't being followed by
default). Hopefully all major bugs can be worked out soon
and we can have a 1.0 release before the end of the year,
but who knows.
05/08/2000 - Nano 0.9.6 cleans up a lot of the display bugs that 0.9.5
uncovered. There are improvements (and some remaining
segfaults) in the wrapping code, and even more
display optimizations. I would still say 0.9.4 or 0.9.2
are the most stable versions of nano to date, but this one
may not be too bad =-)
05/01/2000 - Nano 0.9.5 attempts to speed up the display of text
to be at least somewhat reasonable. Much
code profiling has been done to reduce the
ridiculous number of redundant display updates. This
will probably expose a lot of bugs that can then be
fixed, so this release is probably not for the faint
of heart. For anyone curious, I would call nano 0.9.2
the most stable version recently, so use that if you're
not particularly concerned with being on the bleeding
edge.
04/25/2000 - Nano 0.9.4 fixes some problems in 0.9.3 with the last
line code and related segfaults. It also now has
much better handling for 8-bit characters. The
--enable-tiny code also produces a smaller executable.
04/19/2000 - Nano 0.9.3 is officially the "Micro$oft" release. It
underscores the recent problem of bugfixes introducing
more bugs than they fix. The most important change
to this version of nano is the removal of the "magic
line". You will no longer see a blank line at the end of
the file. If you want a new line at the end of your file,
you'll have to hit enter to get one.
NOTE: THIS BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH PICO. Unfortunately,
this feature has been causing many many problems with nano
so it is being removed for the time being, and perhaps
indefinitely.
Other new stuff includes an --enable-tiny option to make
nano ultra small (disabling i18n, detailed help and the
marker and mouse code), and --with-slang to use the
slang libraries instead of ncurses.
04/15/2000 - Nano 0.9.2 just fixes the serious segfault problem if
nano is invoked any way other than using the absolute
path. The bug was in the new code for checking whether
nano is invoked as 'pico'.
04/14/2000 - 0.9.1 has some more Pico compatibility built-in. The
option to switch to/from Search and Search/Replace
(^T) is now available, and nano now displays the
more Pico-like shortcut list when invoked as 'pico'
(i.e. if 'pico' is a symlink to nano). There is an
important change to the handling of symbolic links
as well. Now, nano does the "correct" thing and
automatically writes to the object of the symlink,
rather than replace the symlink with the updated file.
This behavior is still available with the --nofollow
or -l flags.
Other new things include a fix for the infamous
"recursive replace" bug, and more bugfixes in the wrapping
code.
04/07/2000 - Nano 0.9.0 has some updates, new language support and
a much better refresh setup (It's still not great, but...)
There should also be more stability editing long lines,
as there was a stupid mistake in the update_line
call. Silly me =)
03/22/2000 - Nano 0.8.9 is basically just a bugfix release of 0.8.8
to reflect the current stagnant status of the project.
Most things work, the rest doesn't doesn't work because
(a) I can't fix it or I would have already done so, and
(b) the amount of patches I'm receiving right now is quite
negligible. Fortunately, this release marks the first
release since I have acquired ownership of the nano pages
on SourceForge. Here's hoping SF will get us some more
visibility, translators and patches.
03/12/2000 - After a hiatus, I have finally moved (not unpacked though)
to my new home into Albany. Thus I should now have more
time to work on nano. Nano 0.8.8, the "dear god what
broke this time?" release, incorporates patches for both
i18n and many bugfixes. It is VERY likely something broke
this version, and it's likely I didn't even apply the i18n
stuff properly, so *it* may not even work.
I would like to announce that I'm going to need
translations soonish, so if you are fluent in other
languages than English (or even better, if your native
language is not English) and you would like to submit a
translation file to me, please feel free to do so. If you
do, I will list your name and email in the AUTHORS file as
the maintainer of the .po file, and from then on it is
yours to take care of and keep up to date.
03/01/2000 - Well, to continue my trend of going back on my previous
release's comments, nano 0.8.7 is released. The crashing
behavior was still occurring, and this most recent fix also
fixes some other wrapping problems, so here you go.
There may be another release soon, there may not be, is
that vague enough? =)
02/25/2000 - More minor bugfixes in 0.8.6, the bizarre behavior at the end
of a page has ceased, thankfully. I'm also moving next
weekend, so don't be shocked if you don't see a new
version of nano next week =-)
02/11/2000 - Okay, here we go again. Aside from a few minor fixes and
some under-the-hood changes, you won't notice much
different in this version of nano. I haven't gotten much
feedback on the help feature, is it simply amazing or does
no one care? Write and let me know! =)
02/08/2000 - Nano 0.8.3 marks the first time in a long time that there has
been more than three days since the last release. New
features include an initial help mode (YAY!), hopefully
much more support for i18n out of the box, and a flag
for more Pico compatibility in the shortcut lists
displayed. This release also marks the new nano
distribution site, http://www.asty.org/nano and email
address nano@asty.org for bugs, etc.
02/02/2000 - Okay, I hate to go back on what I said in the last release,
but I may be changing jobs very soon. I will release
version 0.8.2 as is (no i18n, no help menu (yet). I
expect things to settle down by the end of next week, and
then I can try to start on the i18n support and help menu;
look for these new features in version 0.8.5 to 0.9.0.
01/28/2000 - Nano 0.8.1 marks our first official step toward
internationalization (i18n) and the help system (^G). I
will be merging in Jordi's patches for initial i18n in the
next version, and will implement the help system with
i18n built into it shortly after that. Please don't
hesitate to send bug reports, as long as you're sure the
fault lies with nano =-).
01/25/2000 - Nano 0.8.0 is officially the 'let's try and be at least a
little portable, mmmmkay?' release. There are many
portability checks and fixes; many thanks to Andy Kahn for
his patches. I removed the broken do_spell behavior with
the 'spell' program; for now, we only try to call 'ispell'
until I write a better method to handle the output of the
normal 'spell' command.
01/24/2000 - Nano 0.7.9 features many new features. Among them are a
new autoindent feature (-i, --autoindent), tempfile
flag like Pico's -t flag (-t, --tempfile), and preliminary
spelling program support. The spelling function tries
to run 'spell' and then 'ispell' in that order, but you
can specify another spelling program with -s or --speller.
01/17/00 - Nano 0.7.7 is officially the 'way too much stuff changed this
release' release. It's the busy time at work for me, so
please don't get offended if your patch doesn't get
included in the next immediate version of nano. I'm sure
all the changes in this release will cause a few bugs, so
0.7.8 will primarily be about fixing those bugs.
Things added this release include resizability (kinda),
new -x and -c flags (see nano -h for help), long command
line flag support, and the usual array of bugfixes.
01/15/00 - Nano 0.7.6 is officially the 'lightning' release. It now loads
large files much faster than previous versions, and is
even much faster than Pico or vi in some rather
rudimentary tests. Many thanks to Adam Rogoyski for the
read_byte patch!
01/09/00 - As of this version (0.7.4), TIP has officially been renamed
to nano. The new homepage is at
http://faculty.plattsburgh.edu/astyanax/nano. Please
update your bookmarks, tell your friends, and all that
jazz.
