+	* nano.h, files.c, nano.c: Adding the command-line option --noread
+	to treat any name on the command line as a new file.  This allows
+	nano to write to named pipes -- it will start with a blank buffer,
+	and will write to the pipe when the user saves the file.  This way
+	nano can be used as an editor in combination with for instance gpg
+	without having to write sensitive data to disk first.

 	* src/*.c: More editing of comment blocks and trimming of blank lines.
