Benno Schulenberg 19c82e6a43 feedback: spare the user a superfluous scaring when trying to exit
Also, a simple question is easier to answer than an annotated one.

Benno Schulenberg 84d21b0972 tweaks: consistently use .sp instead of .PP to insert a blank line
And use plain .P to start a new paragraph.

Benno Schulenberg f8e0320722 syntax: nanorc: require whitespace both before and after a quoted string
This ensures that the keyname M-" is not miscolored.

Benno Schulenberg e5a8c35104 feedback: show a message while executing an external command
Some commands can take a little while to execute; showing just the prompt
during that time could give the impression that nothing is happening.

This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56041.

Devin Hussey 7ad232d714 files: initialize a variable before referencing it
The lack of initialization caused a nasty bug on some targets (such as
ARMv7) which would make it so that ^S would just say "Cancelled".

While x86 (both 64 and 32 bits) seems to initialize 'response' to zero or
a positive number, ARM does not, and there is usually a negative value in
its place, which triggers the 'if (response < 0)' check and, as a result,
the code says "Cancelled".

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56023.

Benno Schulenberg 3f695b8fb7 speller: resizing can happen also when configured with --enable-tiny
When nano was configured with --enable-tiny --enable-speller, the
block_sigwinch() function should be available, to mask SIGWINCHes
during a spell check.

Benno Schulenberg 55699dc171 tweaks: rename some variables, to be less repititious

Benno Schulenberg f58869d072 tweaks: put the unblocking of SIGWINCHes in a better place
The blocking is needed only during the wait(), so unblock SIGWINCH
again right after the wait() -- also to have the unblocking before
a possible error exit.

Benno Schulenberg 978c121de1 speller: block the resizing signal again during an external spell check
Somehow a SIGWINCH pushes nano past the wait() in do_alt_speller(),
even though the external spelling program hasn't finished.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56010
by reverting commit 1f39f60b.

Bug existed since version 3.2.

Benno Schulenberg a1375474d9 docs: remove the AUTHOR section, per advice from 'man man-pages'
Also because most of nano has meanwhile been written by other people
than Chris.  And because authorship is meta-information, irrelevant
for knowing how to operate nano.

Benno Schulenberg 43c6bc6619 tweaks: add a consistency check plus a corresponding warning
Since commit 4c6ec637 from about half a year ago, the 'action' parameter
of update_undo() is unused.  Verify that this parameter matches the type
of the item at the top of the undo stack, so that in another half year
the parameter can be safely removed.

Benno Schulenberg 47f3dc75d8 display: use non-breaking space instead of dot for VTE-bug workaround

David Lawrence Ramsey 93ee0a8a65 display: show the guide stripe for double-width/multi-byte characters
Determine the actual number of bytes the striped character consists of,
instead of assuming it's simply one, and determine the real column that
the character starts in, instead of assuming it's the stripe column.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55917
