2017.05.04 - GNU nano 2.8.2 "Krats" adds another new feature: it makes
the ^G help texts searchable with ^W. Apart from that,
it fixes a crash when resizing the window in the middle
of verbatim input, avoids an unlikely crash when used
without UTF-8 support in some locales, avoids redrawing
the screen twice when switching between buffers while
line numbers are active, and works around a coloring
bug on musl. Plus tweaks to the documentation; plus
translation updates for fifteen languages.
2017.04.12 - GNU nano 2.8.1 "Ellert" fixes build failures on MacOS and
on musl, fixes scrolling problems in softwrap mode when
double-width characters on row boundaries are involved,

<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>2.8.1</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>
