.SH NAME
nanorc \- GNU nano's rcfile
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B /etc/nanorc
.B $HOME/.nanorc
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents GNU \fBnano\fP's rcfile.
.PP
\fBnano\fP 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, \fBnano\fP also implements some
missing (or disabled by default) features in Pico, such as "search and
replace" and "go to line number".
.SH OPTIONS
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.
Options in rcfiles take precedence over nano's defaults, and command line
options override rcfile settings.
The supported commands and arguments are:
.TP 3
\fBset/unset autoindent\fP
Use auto-indentation.
.TP
\fBset/unset backup\fP
Create backup files in filename~.
.TP
\fBset/unset const\fP
Constantly update the cursor position.
.TP
\fBset/unset cut\fP
Use cut to end of line with ^K by default.
.TP
\fBset fill n\fP
Set fill cols to n.
.TP
\fBset/unset keypad\fP
Use alternate keypad routines.
.TP
\fBset/unset multibuffer\fP
Allow multiple file buffers.
.TP
\fBset/unset noconvert\fP
Don't convert files from DOS/Mac format.
.TP
\fBset/unset nofollow\fP
Don't follow symlinks when writing files.
.TP
\fBset/unset nohelp\fP
Don't display the help lists at the bottom of the screen.
.TP
\fBset/unset nowrap\fP
Don't wrap text at all.
.TP
\fBset operatingdir "directory"\fP
Set operating directory (chroots the user to "directory" and below).
.TP
\fBset/unset preserve\fP
Preserve the XON and XOFF keys (^Q and ^S).
.TP
\fBset quotestr "string"\fP
The email-quote string. This is a "regular expression" if your
system supports them, otherwise a literal string.
Default value is set quotestr "^([ \t]*[|>:}#])+" if you have regexps,
otherwise set quotestr "> ".
.TP
\fBset/unset regexp\fP
Do regular expression searches by default.
.TP
\fBset/unset smooth\fP
Use smooth scrolling by default.
.TP
\fBset speller aspell\fP

.TP
\fBset/unset suspend\fP

.TP
\fBset tabsize n\fP
Use a tab size of n instead of the default (8); must be greater than 0.
.TP
\fBset/unset tempfile\fP
Save automatically on exit, don't prompt.
.TP
\fBset/unset historylog\fP
Enable ~/.nano_history for saving and reading search/replace strings.
.TP
\fBset/unset view\fP

.TP
\fBsyntax "short description" "regexp"\fP
Define a color syntax name and a regexp to associate files to it.
.TP
\fBcolor "foreground" "[background]" "regexp" ["regexp"...]\fP
Define color rules for different strings. Specifying background is optional,
and you can define multiple regexps to a color rule.
.TP
Every "syntax" command must be followed by one or more "color" rules.
