<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This manual page documents GNU <B>nano</B>'s rcfile.
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<B>nano</B> is a small, free and friendly editor which aims to replace
|
||
|
|
Pico, the default editor included in the non-free Pine package. Rather
|
||
|
|
than just copying Pico's look and feel, <B>nano</B> also implements some
|
||
|
|
missing (or disabled by default) features in Pico, such as "search and
|
||
|
|
replace" and "go to line number".
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
|
||
|
|
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The configuration file accepts a series of "set" and "unset" commands,
|
||
|
|
which can be used to configure nano on startup without using the
|
||
|
|
command-line options. Additionally, the "syntax" and "color" keywords
|
||
|
|
are used to define syntax highlighting rules for different text patterns.
|
||
|
|
GNU nano will read one command per line.
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
Options in rcfiles take precedence over nano's defaults, and command line
|
||
|
|
options override rcfile settings.
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The supported commands and arguments are:

|
||
|
|
<DT><B>syntax </B><I>str</I> [<I>fileregex</I> ... ]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<DD>
|
||
|
|
Defines a syntax named <I>str</I> which can be activated via the
|
||
|
|
<B>-Y</B> flag, or will be automatically activated if the current
|
||
|
|
filename matches <I>fileregex</I>. All following <B>color</B> statements
|
||
|
|
will apply to <I>syntax</I> until a new syntax is defined.
|
||
|
|
<DT><B>color </B><I>fgcolor</I>[,<I>bgcolor</I>] <I>regex</I> ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<DD>
|
||
|
|
For the currently defined syntax, display all expressions matching
|
||
|
|
<I>regex</I> with foreground color <I>fgcolor</I> and optional background
|
||
|
|
color <I>bgcolor</I>. Legal colors for foreground and background color are:
|
||
|
|
white, black, red, blue, green, yellow, magenta, and cyan. You may use
|
||
|
|
the prefix "bright" to force a stronger color highlight. If your
|
||
|
|
terminal supports transparency, not specifying a <I>bgcolor</I> tells
|
||
|
|
<B>nano</B> to attempt to use a transparent background.
|
||
|
|
<DT><B>color </B><I>fgcolor</I>[,<I>bgcolor</I>] start=<I>sr</I> end=<I>er</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<DD>
|
||
|
|
Display expressions which start with <I>sr</I> and end with <I>er</I>
|
||
|
|
with foreground color <I>fgcolor</I> and optional
|
||
|
|
background color <I>bgcolor</I>. This allows syntax highlighting to span
|
||
|
|
multiple lines. Note that all subsequent instances of <I>sr</I> after
|
||
|
|
an initial <I>sr</I> is found will be highlighted until the first
|
||
|
|
instance of <I>er</I>.
