The tiny version is probably only ever used in the Debian installer,
on the bterm terminal, which produces escape sequences like those of
a Linux console. So, exclude all other raw sequences.
(After support for Slang has been removed, we can maybe even exclude
ALL raw sequences from the tiny version, and the corresponding option
(-K/--rawsequences) too.)
At least since version 229 of xterm (from August 2007), the escape
sequences for F1 to F4 have been "Esc O P" to "Esc O S". There is
no bracket in those sequences, and there probably never was -- most
likely the extra "[" in nano's code was a slip of the fingers.
Trying to determine which syntax to apply with the help of libmagic
can be a somewhat time-consuming and yet often still fruitless affair.
Therefore using libmagic should not be the default; it should require
an option to tell nano to try using libmagic when it can't determine
the applicable syntax from the file's name or first line.
This is better than having a --nomagic option (and using libmagic by
default), because when the user has 'set nomagic' in their nanorc or
--nomagic in their alias, then switching the use of libmagic back on
is troublesome. But with --magic (and not using libmagic by default),
when nano fails to recognize a file, it is a simple ^X, add -! to the
command line, and restart.
The short form of the option is -! because we have run out of letters.

With --stateflags (short form: -%) or 'set stateflags', nano reserves
the righthand end of the title bar not for showing "Modified" but for
showing the state of auto-indentation (I), the mark (M), the breaking
of long lines (L), macro recording (R), and softwrapping (S).
When the buffer is modified, this is indicated with a star (*) after
the file name (shown in the center of the title bar).
This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57953.

Typing ^H (by default equivalent to Backspace) at the start of the file
is not useful. When it happens, assume that the user is new and tried
to ask for Help. So... explain what the caret and the "M-" in the help
lines mean.
Also, to keep menu items nicely grouped in the Main, Search, Replace,
and Goto menus, reorder a few items when no help is available.

When nano reports "Unbound key" or "Unknown sequence", this message
should stay onscreen only for the relevant keystroke, not for any
succeeding keystroke.
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59119.
Bug existed since before version 2.0.6.
Slang fails to translate the longer sequences, and then truncates
these sequences to just four bytes, effectively destroying them.
Therefore, when built with --with-slang, always activate --raw-sequences.
This avoids https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?49771.
Bug was visible since version 2.5.0, since bindings
for Ctrl+Left/Ctrl+Right were added.
In this way, any message that is on the status bar after the search
will be a response to this search and not some leftover.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59109.
(This effectively reverts commit ba47abb4 from two days ago, but it
groups things better. It makes an unnecessary call to bottombars()
for M-Q and M-W, but this hardly matters: searching in a help text
does not need to be efficient.)
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59108.
