On a Linux VT, refuse to start when there are errors in a nanorc file,
so that the messages no longer get overwritten -- which prevented the
user from seeing and reading them.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54442.
Since the last version, the user can filter an entire buffer through
an external command. This external command can also be a formatting
program, so there is no longer any need for this specific and special
formatter command.
(In the Search and Replace menus Cancel is not essential. And in the
Goto Line menu Cancel is not needed at all: a simple <Enter> after an
empty answer works fine.)
This fixes the second part of https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54447.
There are at least three other ways to achieve the thing that it did:
^End, M-/, and ^W^V. No need to have a fourth way by default.
For symmetry, also unassign the corresponding binding for M-|.
The 'cutwordright' function has gotten ^Delete as its default binding,
so the 'cutwordleft' function needs a default binding too -- also to
keep the items on the two help lines nicely paired. M-| was chosen
because it is close to the Backspace key on many keyboard layouts.
Print routines are not asynchronous-safe.
But... the only reason the call of kill() could return an error code
is when the relevant process has already terminated -- which is not
a problem, because that was the goal of calling kill().

As the help viewer is almost a normal buffer, commands that make sense
-- like searching backwards, and searching the previous occurrence --
should work in the help viewer too.
In addition, show all Search commands prominently in the help lines of
the help viewer, so that users are likely to notice them and will maybe
infer that they work in the editor itself too.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54368.

Put "Where Was" in its place, to make the symmetry of ^W/M-W/^Q/M-Q
somewhat clearer. Also, conditionally reshuffle "Save File", to try
and keep menu items nicely paired.
The undo item for ENTER should record the file size *before* the amount
of auto-indentation whitespace is added to it.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54344.

Bind the until-now unbound function 'cutwordright' to <Ctrl+Delete>.
The complementary function, 'cutwordleft', is not bound by default
because on many terminals the keystroke <Ctrl+Backspace> generates
^H -- the canonical ASCII backspace character. We cannot change the
existing action of ^H without upsetting some users.

To match the documentation and to match what the nanorc.nanorc
colors as valid.
In theory it would be possible to allow rebinding also F17...F63,
but nano does not recognize escape sequences for these high-order
function keys. As no one ever complained about unknown sequences
when pressing function keys, I am guessing that no one has these
high-order keys, or at least that no one uses them.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54332.
Instead of being entirely silent when ^] is hit after whitespace
or punctuation, report what is lacking -- similar to M-] saying
"Not a bracket" when the cursor is not sitting on a bracket.
This makes the ^] keystroke more discoverable.
This makes things symmetrical: ^W starts a forward search, ^Q starts
a backward search, M-W searches the next occurrence forward, and M-Q
searches the next occurrence backward.
The Tabs-To-Spaces toggle is moved to M-O, and thus the More-Space
toggle is no longer bound by default.
When using option -K on an xterm-like terminal, pressing <Shift+Del>,
<Alt+Del>, or <Ctrl+Del> would enter "2~", "3~", or "5~", respectively,
into the buffer. Now it will just report an "Unknown sequence".
