Also, 'hunspell' is sensitive to the 'LANG' environment variable,
so that spell checking will take place for the language that the
user is using, instead of always for English. (This is a behavior
change, and some people may not like it, expecting the spell check
to occur always for English, but... we'll see.)
This increases the chances that spell checking will work out of the box,
without any extra installing or configuration.
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57296.
There are several cases (searching, replacing, spell checking, ...)
where exiting from the help viewer does NOT return the user to the

Bug existed since version 3.2, commit cc01bc3e.
Also, when something goes wrong in the later stages of the pipeline,
the error code would try to close descriptors that are already closed,
which is not right. So, just let exit() handle any file descriptors
that are still open.
When something goes wrong, nano should beep and the status bar should
use the error color (red by default).
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57116.
Run the formatting program outside of curses mode, so that any output
(complaints) that it produces will be on the terminal after exiting
from nano -- at least on a terminal emulator, not on a Linux VT.
This also allows the formatter to be an interactive program.
The disadvantage is that the screen flickers when typing M-F.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57104.
For a nonzero exit status of the formatting program, report on the
status bar that the program "complained", but read in the (probably)
reformatted text anyway -- it can be easily undone with M-U. Only
report failure when the intended program could not be run.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57105.
The word "fixer" sounds too much as if the command would be able
to fix mistakes or correct errors. Especially when seen next to
"linter", it sounds as if one does a syntax check and the other
fixes the found mistakes. (Although the command might in theory
be used for this, it is not its intended purpose.)
When dealing with a plain, seven-bit ASCII character, don't bother
calling is_cntrl_mbchar() but determine directly whether it is a
control character. Also reshuffle things so that we don't compare
charlen == 1 when we already know it is 1.
After the previous change, all remaining calls of parse_mbchar() have
NULL as their third parameter. So, drop that parameter and remove the
chunk of code that handles it. Also rename the function, as there are
already too many functions that start with "parse".
Do not wait for the user to press a key when there is some problem
with any of the history files. Just start and indicate the problem
on the status bar. The precise error message is stored and will be
shown on the terminal when exiting from nano.
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56524.
Now all calls of mallocstrncpy() have NULL as the first parameter
(apart from one call in utils.c, but that can be changed), so the
function can be simplified.
This case is caught (by O_EXCL) later on, at the appropriate moment:
when the file is created.
Also, this removes a superfluous lstat() for each temporary file.
Weird bug. The first occurrence is probably never hit because the
existing file has been tentatively opened fourteen lines earlier,
but that looks superfluous: double work. And the second occurrence
will not be hit because the temp file is unlikely to have disappeared.
Also, don't bother assigning the stream pointer of the existing file
to variable 'f', as it gets overwritten right away by the pointer of
the temp file.
A possible change in filename won't be pushed to the screen until a
doupdate() is done, and that won't happen until nano is waiting for
a keystroke again. So... just let it be.
The old default behavior of showing the first three messages with a
long pause after each of them was annoying, and the final "Further
messages were suppressed" hid the relevant information. So, when
there is more than one error message, just pause very briefly and
then add trailing dots to the first message.
This makes the 'nopauses' option a no-op.
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57048.
The command can be used to run some kind of formatter or corrector or
arranging tool on the buffer. By default the command is bound to M-F.
The formatter/corrector/arranging program must be non-interactive.

and addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54651.
The nano.h file is included only by proto.h, and the proto.h file is
included just once by each src/*.c file. The include guards for these
two header files serve no purpose.
(Include guards are useful when you have bunches of header files
and several of them include others from amongst themselves.)
When an operation that replaces the entire buffer is undone, the
position of the viewport is lost. Compensate for this by storing
the row of the cursor in the undo item, and, after executing the
undo item, arranging the viewport so that the cursor is back on
the original row -- the row where the operation was invoked.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57039.
For the three operations (justification, spell checking, and filtering)
that need to undo or redo two suboperations (cutting and then pasting)
in one go, pass the message that describes the operation to add_undo(),
so that the undo item does not need to be modified after the call.
This looks better, but does add some twenty NULL parameters elsewhere.
When 'extendsyntax' is used with a 'header' or 'magic' command, it
must be processed immediately. It is pointless to store the command,
because when then it is processed (when the syntax gets used), it is
too late to have any effect.

Bug existed since version 4.4, commit 4314b8de.
For historical reasons the rebinding code allows binding F13...F16,
which on most terminals are typable with Shift plus F1...F4. But,
at least on an Xfce Terminal, Shift plus F1...F12 produce F13...F24.
On a Linux console, Shift plus F1...F8 produce F13...F20. So: allow
to bind the full shifted F13...F24 range. It costs no extra code
and makes things more rounded.
Hard-binding the ^H control code prevents the user from rebinding
the keystroke.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56995.
Bug existed since version 4.0, commit 72a49dbb.
In a non-UTF8 build, mbwidth() returns always 1, so it is pointless
to call that function and compare its result to zero then.
Also, don't bother special-casing the function for a non-UTF8 locale.
When there are fewer than four menu items, act as if there are four:
make their clickable width half the width of the screen.
Until now, when there were two menu items, their clickable width would
be the full width of the screen, which was overwide. But when there
was just one menu item, its clickable width would suddenly be as small
as when the menu had the maximum number of items (12 for an 80-column
screen). This was odd.
Also, slightly simplify another computation.
The first_sc_for() function is somewhat costly, so avoid calling it
when it is not necessary.
Most menus have either so many entries that unbinding some keys does
not reduce the number of shown entries, or they have so few entries
that each entry already has space enough and will not profit from
having more room available. But the WriteOut menu is an edge case.
Most translators don't use --tempfile and translate the key tags for
the WriteOut menu making use of all 17 positions that are available
for each of them. This makes that when --tempfile is used, some of
those tags get truncated. This is not so bad, because --tempfile is
normally not used. But when it isn't used (when the discardbuffer
function isn't bound), the WriteOut menu should make full use of the
available width to avoid truncating any translated tags.
In this way the keycode cannot be unbound from the 'indent' function,
so pressing <Tab> on a marked region will always indent the region.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56960.
Bug existed since the "tabbing" of a marked region was introduced,
in version 2.9.2, commit 09958ebd.
The 'tabgives' command is syntax-specific and should be followed by a
string containing the character(s) that a single press of the <Tab> key
should produce -- most likely a single TAB or a small bunch of spaces,
but any string is allowed. This overrides the 'tabstospaces' option.
When one wants to make sure <Tab> inserts always four spaces and never
a TAB when editing a Python file, one could add to one's nanorc:
extendsyntax python tabgives " "
where there are four spaces between the quotes. And when one wants
to ensure, when editing a Makefile, that <Tab> always inserts a TAB
and never spaces, independent of what tabstospaces is set to, one
could add to one's nanorc:
extendsyntax makefile tabgives " "
where there is a literal TAB character between the quotes.

If the edit window consists of a single row, then the do_down() call

should then be made to scroll the screen further.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56553.
Bug existed since version 2.9.6, commit 0d9080a2.
It is a waste of time to first fully clear a row when right afterward
text will be written to it (for most of the row, on average). So...
just clear the part of the row after the written text. Curses has the
perfect function for this: clrtoeol().
The edit window has been fully cleared just before the list-drawing
loop has started, so there is no need to wipe anything. Only for the
highlighting bar all its characters need to be drawn with the correct
attributes.
Where the row needs to be filled with spaces with the attributes that
were set (title bar, prompt bar, and browser highlight), use printw().
But when the row needs to be actually cleared, use the much faster
clrtoeol().
This reduces the time needed to clear a full row with 95 percent.
Since commit 7028adf2 from three days ago, also the color commands of
syntaxes that are defined in a main nanorc will get parsed during a
second pass, so it is perfectly possible to extend such syntaxes
later on in the same (or another) nanorc file.
'opensyntax' is relevant only during the first pass through all the
nanorc files (intros_only == TRUE) when it is checked that syntax
commands are grouped properly and not mixed with others. And
'lastcolor' is relevant only during the second pass of a specific
syntax, because only then the color commands are actually parsed.
Whenever, in an rcfile, a command is encountered that is not part of a
syntax definition, a currently open syntax should be closed, but only
after checking that the syntax contains at least one color command.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56501.
