========================
Since 2.9.0:
- A key can be bound to a string -- any mix of text and commands.
- Error messages are shown by default in bright white on red.
- <Tab> and <Shift+Tab> can be used to indent/unindent a marked region.
- Can snip trailing whitespace while typing, with 'set trimblanks'.
- The ability to record and replay a series of keystrokes (a macro).

2018.03.08 - GNU nano 2.9.4 "Isabel" allows binding a key to a string
(any piece of text and/or commands), permits customizing
the color of error messages with 'set errorcolor', colors
those error messages by default in bright white on red,
makes <Enter> at the bottom of the screen scroll just one
row when --smooth is used, does not fail when redoing a
file insertion, and cancels a Shift-selection when any
cursor key is pressed without Shift even when the cursor
cannot move. Further, it treats tabs fully the same as
spaces when doing automatic hard-wrapping, allows syntax
names to be unquoted, and removes two deprecated options
and six deprecated bindable function names.
2018.01.29 - GNU nano 2.9.3 "Córdoba" fixes a segfault with trimblanks
that could occur when a typed space caused the word after
it to be pushed to the next line. It further makes macros

<h2><a name="1.3"></a>1.3. 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="1.4"></a>1.4. What is the current version of nano?</h2>
<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>2.9.3</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>
