Benno Schulenberg 3dc6ccbe86 tweaks: rename a function, to be more accurate
Because nothing gets reset to zero or to some initial value.

Benno Schulenberg 5a741a0205 tweaks: remove some superfluous placements of the cursor
The cursor needs to be placed in its proper spot in the edit window
/only/ when nano is about to accept input from the user and needs to
show where this input will go.

(This might cause a scrolling issue to appear, because reset_cursor()
does not just place the cursor, it also recomputes current_y, which
is used in several places to determine whether and how much to scroll.
If it so happens, we'll deal with that fallout later.)

Benno Schulenberg 5aa12a2b3d tweaks: group ^D and ^H together in the help lines
This also groups ^I and ^M together, and cutwordleft and cutwordright
(when they are bound).  It furthermore makes that less pairs are now
mixed and instead consist of either two Ctrl or two Meta combos.  In
short: it looks better in the default config.  The only sacrifice is
that Verbatim is now split off from the other "inserting" keys.

Benno Schulenberg dab70d06ed linting: when no is said to a file, remove all corresponding entries
When the user chooses not to open a file that some message refers to,
remove all messages for that file from the linting results, so the user
does not get asked about that same file again.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47130.

Benno Schulenberg 754c62c5cc copyright: update the years, use ranges, and explain this usage
The interval 2013-2017 for the Free Software Foundation is valid
because in those years there were releases with changes by either
Chris or David, and the GNU maintainers guide advises to mention
a new year in all files of a package, not just in the ones that
actually changed, and be done with it for the rest of the year.

Benno Schulenberg 9f2c80db24 moving: when determining where we are on the screen, use placewewant
To make dynamic Home and End work properly when double-width characters
straddle a chunk boundary, use the spot where the cursor is really shown
instead of the "actual x" position of the current character, because the
latter might be on the preceding row.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50737.

Benno Schulenberg bf00e3f606 tweaks: put M-A before ^6, to look better above M-6 in the help lines
Also, M-A is far more mnemonic for setting the mark than ^6 or ^^,
so it's better to try and teach the user that.

David Lawrence Ramsey 23ae7bfbbf input: support escape sequences for ^Home and ^End
Make nano recognize the escape sequences for Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-End,
Shift-Ctrl-Home, and Shift-Ctrl-End on xterm, rxvt, and Eterm.

Benno Schulenberg cb0806b2a0 bindings: make ^Home and ^End go to top and tail of buffer
On some terminal emulators, Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End produce special
keycodes, distinct from plain Home and End.  Make the users of those
emulators (and of the Linux console) glad by making ^Home and ^End
do the obvious thing, and the combinations with Shift too.

Benno Schulenberg 005ee8eda6 editing: avoid creating blank lines when using autoindent
When Enter is pressed while the cursor is exactly on the current
indent width, remove the blank characters on that line to avoid
creating a line that consists only of trailing whitespace.

(When Enter is pressed somewhere in the middle of the blanks,
however, the whitespace is preserved.)

Benno Schulenberg f3e2ad945d display: with softwrap, show the cursor where the eye expects it
When a multi-column character straddles a chunk boundary, and the
preferred column (placewewant) for the cursor is zero, cheat: show
the cursor not where the character starts but on the beginning of
the next row.  This makes the cursor move smoothly in the leftmost
column of the screen when using <Up> and <Down> and such, instead
of jumping around.

In this way the scrolling logic won't get confused and the screen
will scroll properly when stepping beyond the top or bottom row.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50687.

Mike Frysinger cc91ee603c configure: ignore the REG_ENHANCED test when we use gnulib

Benno Schulenberg 8fc72eb32b bindings: use arrows instead of words to designate the cursor keys
When UTF-8 is available, use actual arrows instead of untranslated words
to indicate the cursor keys.  This was already done for the combinations
with Ctrl but not yet for the plain cursor keys.

Benno Schulenberg 6b5aff4878 tweaks: put unshifted shortcuts ^6 and M-6 first, instead of ^^ and M-^
The unshifted shortcuts are easier to type, and also less confusing in
my eyes.  Putting them first means they get shown in the help lines,
and get listed first in the ^G help text.

(I would also like to put ^- first instead of ^_ (because the latter
is hard to see when using the default inverse video for shortcuts),
but on several terminal emulators Ctrl+- reduces the font size.)

Benno Schulenberg fb534bada6 bindings: make ^Up/^Down go to first/last row in the file browser

Kamil Dudka 70bcf752dc backup: prevent a symlink attack by operating on the file descriptor
Use futimens() instead of utime() to change the timestamps on a backup
file.  Otherwise, a non-privileged user could create an arbitrary symlink
with the name of the backup file and in this way fool a privileged user
to call utime() on the attacker-chosen file.

Import the relevant gnulib module to make sure futimens() is available.

Mike Frysinger 8f2b5bbf3d configure: fix up word boundary regex logic now that we have gnulib
If we're using the bundled gnulib regex module, then assume word boundary
support is available to avoid issues with the regcomp test.  This also
unifies the different code paths a bit.

David Lawrence Ramsey f9a8d6ff4e scrolling: properly compensate for the onscreen chunks
If edittop is partially offscreen before we scroll, and it gets
scrolled more offscreen, we do need to compensate for the chunks
between firstcolumn and leftedge -- that is: the chunks between
the top row and the cursor row.

David Lawrence Ramsey c3830517cc display: show '<' and '>' placeholders for characters that get split
When a two-column character cannot be shown because it straddles the

its left "half", and '<' for its right "half".
