The get_history_older_void() and get_history_newer_void() functions
are mere names, they don't actually do anything. So... don't bother
to execute them, so the 'finished' variable doesn't have to be reset
after calling them.
Also, normalize the order of those two empty functions.
When doing replacements or fixing misspelled words, and edit_refresh()
is called to highlight the relevant word, then the current menu can be
anything from MREPLACEWITH, MYESNO, MSPELL, or MMAIN. Make sure it is
always set to the latter just before calling edit_refresh(), so that
display_string() will use the full length and the word gets properly
highlighted.

When a line ends with a two-column character, and this character straddles
the edit window's edge, then, although we've reached the end of 'buf', we
have exceeded the 'beyond' column and this two-column character needs to
be trimmed from the 'converted' string, otherwise it would get printed on
the next row.

This signals our break from trying to be as compatible with Pico as
possible. We were already incompatible with modern Pico in the -n
and -W options, and in several character-set and color options, so
ignoring those five options brought us very little.
Anyway, soon some of those options will be reused and will have the
effect of making nano look and behave more like Pico.
Using the cursor keys for movement-related functions makes more sense
than using them for jumping to the previous or next occurrence of the

When multiple buffers are open, the edit window says "Close" for ^X
instead of "Exit" (when one buffer is open). In the help viewer ^X
says "Close". Apparently the idea is that ^X should say "Exit" only
when pressing ^X leads to exiting from nano. Pressing ^X in the file
browser does not exit from nano, so make it say "Close" instead.
(The help viewer says "Close" since version 2.8.6, commit 934a2192.)
When using --preserve, ^S and ^Q are "eaten" by the terminal and
do not reach nano: they have no effect in nano, so the help lines
and the help texts should not mention these shortcuts.
Also, to keep the help lines in the help viewer neatly arranged,
^L is not bound there when --preserve is used.
Not stepping beyond the last line of the paragraph means that the
length of the paragraph is always the difference in line numbers
(between first and last line of the paragraph) plus one.
When leaving the mark on while justifying and then undoing the
justification, things are likely to get messed up. My applying
David's patches only partially caused this breakage.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55074.
Only the first search for a paragraph needs to check whether we're
currently in the middle of a paragraph. When the 'while' loop for
a full justify is executed, all calls of find_paragraph() start
either on the first line of a paragraph or between two paragraphs.
To find a paragraph, what needs to be done is:
a) When not in a paragraph, move forward until we find one, if any.
b) When in a paragraph but not at its start, move back to its start.
c) Move forward to the end of the paragraph, if any.
When, in the 'while' loop for a full justify, 'filebot_inpar' becomes
TRUE, it means that EOF has been reached and find_paragraph() should
not be called again. To allow 'filebot_inpar' to convey this meaning,
it should not be set to TRUE elsewhere, so another boolean is needed
for setting the correct length of the final line of the cutbuffer.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55086.
The removal of the x-coordinate handling affected this. Reshuffle things
so that we can check for it after we have moved (the same way we check for
it at the beginning of the function before we move) without having to set
'quote_len' and 'par_len' unnecessarily.
Also, adjust some comments accordingly.
Move detecting the final line of the paragraph to find_paragraph(),
since a paragraph of which the final line is the last line of the
buffer will still be that way after being justified.
Also, move all x-coordinate handling to do_justify(), since it only
applies to the current buffer.
Move a few references to the current buffer to do_justify(). Also,
the check for being at the end of the buffer needs to be done after the
first paragraph is found, so that the existing behavior of finding an
initial paragraph regardless of cursor position is preserved.
The functions do_para_begin() and do_para_end() can now move through any
buffer, while the functions do_para_begin_void() and do_para_end_void()
operate on the current buffer. The latter function also returns TRUE
if the last line in the buffer is part of the paragraph.
Remove the handling of 'edittop', 'totsize', and the mark, to make the
function more general, which is needed to make it undoable eventually.
This breaks the function somewhat. Fixes for this are forthcoming.
The function assumes that it works on the current buffer by handling
'totsize' and the mark. Remove this handling to make the function
more general, which is needed to make it undoable eventually.
This breaks the function somewhat. Fixes for this are forthcoming.
The new binding will be put at the head of the list and thus will
be the one that is found -- the old binding will never be seen, so
rubbing it out is just a waste of time.
Further down, the <Backspace> key is bound to do_page_up() for MHELP
and MBROWSER, so this earlier binding should exclude MBROWSER.

Bug existed since version 2.9.2, commit 8581e702.
Set the Meta flag only for the regular Meta keystrokes: "M-" plus a
printable ASCII character. The special keycodes are unique and do
not need any extra flags to differentiate them.
This works for xterm, rxvt, Eterm, Konsole, and xfce4-terminal, which
generate "Esc [ 3 ; 3 ~", but not for urxvt, which generates one of
its double-escape sequences, "Esc Esc [ 3 ~".
Using --zap or -Z on the command line, or 'set zap' in a nanorc file,
makes the <Bsp> and <Del> keys erase selected text (a marked region)
as they do in some other editors, and without affecting the cutbuffer.

Return immediately to editing mode when there are no messages for
the original file and the user does not wish to open any of the
included files that do have messages.
Also, reword the message that the linter gives then, and leave it
on the status bar (just like when Cancel is pressed).
The bindings for F1 to F12 are there for compatibility with Pico.
But Pico does not know anything about F13 to F16; for unknown reasons
they were added to nano. They seem hardly useful: normal keyboards
do not have the F13 to F16 keys, and very few people know that they
can "produce" those keys by holding Shift with F1 to F4. But typing
Shift plus F1 to F4 are just as "hard" as, for example, M-G and M-W,
so why anyone would want to use the first ones...? Especially since
many other functions of nano can only be accessed through Meta and
Control combinations.
Furthermore, F13 to F15 haven't been shown in the help texts since
version 2.3.3, so for more than four years no new user will have
learned about those keystrokes.
The rare user who wants these strange bindings can easily make them
herself.
The help lines will help differentiate this mode from normal editing
mode, and will tell the user how to jump to other messages.
This is a third step to address https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54714.
When --view is used without --ignorercfiles, the user could view
other files anyway if they had 'set multibuffer' in their nanorc.
So, just make this the default when --view is used, also because
"multibuffer" cannot be toggled once nano is running in view mode.
When the viewing of other files in view mode should not be allowed,
one should now additionally use --restricted.
The 'wrap_at' variable, removed in commit e90b7cf4, is actually needed
to store the original value of the --fill option when it is negative.
Otherwise, changing the screen width will not update the wrapping point
properly.

The ^P and ^N keystrokes for Older and Newer are relevant to searching
and should be visible in the help lines. FullJustify, paragraph jumps,
and top/tail jumping are there only for compatibility with Pico but
don't make any sense there, so it's no problem if they are pushed out
of view.
Rename not only the bindable functions, but more importantly reword the
tags that are shown for ^P and ^N in the help lines: "Older" / "Newer",
because these are clearer and not awkward abbreviations.
When using --view --multibuffer --restricted, it is the latter option
that forbids reading in another file, so that is what the status bar
should say.

The new function, justify_paragraph(), takes a quote length and a
paragraph length (which it should get from find_paragraph()), and
runs the paragraph at (current, current_x) through justify_format().
Move some fragments out of the justifying loop, and adjust/clarify comments
to account for the changes. This will allow some of the code to be cleaned
up and simplified in the next commits.
