 Since 5.0:
+  - A search briefly spotlights the found text, in black on yellow by default.
+  - Option --minibar reduces the interface to a bottom bar with basic info.
+  - The cursor skips over combining characters, <Del> deletes them together
+    with the character they combine with, but <Bsp> deletes them separately.
+  - For using libmagic the option --magic or -! or 'set magic' is required.
+  - With --stateflags the state of some things is shown in the title bar.
   - M-Bsp deletes a word leftward.
   - With --indicator a "scrollbar" is shown, indicating position+portion.

+2021.10.06 - GNU nano 5.9 "El manicomio ha decidido: mañana sol!"
+• The extension of a filename is added to the name of a corresponding
+  temporary file, so that spell checking a C file, for example, will
+  check only the comments and strings (when using 'aspell').
+• The process number is added to the name of an emergency save file,
+  so that when multiple nanos die they will not fight over a filename.
+• Undoing a cutting operation will restore an anchor that was located
+  in the cut area to its original line.
+• When using --locking, saving a new buffer will create a lock file.
+• Syntax highlighting for YAML files has been added.
+
+2021.06.15 - GNU nano 5.8 "Why is it necessary to be special?"
+• After a search, the spotlighting is dropped after 1.5 seconds (0.8
+  seconds with --quick) to avoid the idea that the text is selected.
+• A + and a space before a filename on the command line will put the
+  cursor at the end of the corresponding buffer.
+• Linter messages no longer include filename and line/column numbers.
+• Color name "grey" or "gray" can be used instead of "lightblack".
+• The color of the minibar can be chosen with 'set minicolor'.
+
+2021.04.29 - GNU nano 5.7 "Toți ceilalți arau câmpurile"
+• The output of --constantshow (without --minibar) is more stable.
+• When opening multiple buffers and there is an error message, this
+  message is shown again upon first switch to the relevant buffer.
+• The position and size of the indicator now follow actual lines,
+  instead of visual lines when in softwrap mode, meaning that the
+  size of the indicator can change when scrolling in softwrap mode.
+
+2021.03.03 - GNU nano 5.6.1 "Geelgors"
+• Search matches are properly colorized in softwrap mode too.
+• Option 'highlightcolor' has been renamed to 'spotlightcolor'.
+
+2021.02.24 - GNU nano 5.6 "Wielewaal"
+• A search match gets highlighted (in black on yellow by default),
+  in addition to placing the cursor at the start of the match.
+  The color combination can be changed with 'set highlightcolor'.
+  By default the cursor is hidden until the next keystroke, but
+  it can be forced on with --showcursor / 'set showcursor'.
+• Option --markmatch / 'set markmatch' has been removed.
+• Cursor position and character code are displayed in the minibar
+  only when option --constantshow / 'set constantshow' is used,
+  and their display can be toggled with M-C.
+• The state flags are displayed in the minibar only when option
+  --stateflags / 'set stateflags' is used.
+
+2021.01.14 - GNU nano 5.5 "Rebecca"
+• Option 'set minibar' makes nano suppress the title bar and instead
+  show a bar with basic editing information at the bottom: file name
+  (plus an asterisk when the buffer is modified), the cursor position
+  (line,column), the character under the cursor (U+xxxx), the flags
+  that --stateflags normally shows, plus the percentage of the buffer
+  that is above the cursor.
+• With 'set promptcolor' the color combination of the prompt bar can
+  be changed, to allow contrasting it with the mini bar (which always
+  has the same color as the title bar).
+• Option 'set markmatch' highlights the result of a successful search
+  by putting the mark at the end of the match, making the match more
+  visible.  It also suppresses the cursor until the next keystroke.
+  (If you dislike the hiding of the cursor, use 'set showcursor'.)
+• The bindable toggle 'nowrap' has been renamed to 'breaklonglines',
+  to match the corresponding option, like for all other toggles.
+• Support for Slang has been removed.
+
+2020.12.02 - GNU nano 5.4 "Terre des hommes"
+• Moving the cursor now skips over combining characters (and other
+  zero-width characters).  Deleting a character deletes also any
+  succeeding zero-width characters, but backspacing deletes just
+  one character at a time.
+• Workarounds for older ncurses and older libvtes were removed.
+
+2020.10.07 - GNU nano 5.3 "Revolution!"
+• Option 'set stateflags' makes nano show the state of auto-indenting,
+  the mark, hard-wrapping, macro recording, and soft-wrapping in the
+  title bar.  The flags take the place of "Modified", and a modified
+  buffer is instead indicated by an asterisk (*) after its name.
+• Nano no longer by default tries using libmagic to determine the type
+  of a file (when neither filename nor first line gave a clue), because
+  in most cases it is a waste of time.  It requires using the option
+  --magic or -! or 'set magic' to make nano try libmagic.
+• The color of the indicator can be changed with 'set scrollercolor'.
+
+2020.08.24 - GNU nano 5.2 "Ranrapalca"

+• A macro containing a Search command will not sometimes fail.
+

           GNU nano -- a simple editor, inspired by Pico
 
-Overview
+Purpose
 
-    The nano project was started because of a few "problems" with the
-    wonderfully easy-to-use and friendly Pico text editor.
+    Nano is a small and simple text editor for use on the terminal.
+    It copied the interface and key bindings of the Pico editor but
+    added several missing features: undo/redo, syntax highlighting,
+    line numbers, softwrapping, multiple buffers, selecting text by
+    holding Shift, search-and-replace with regular expressions, and
+    several other conveniences.
+
+Appearance
+
+    In rough ASCII graphics, this is what nano's screen looks like:

+  | The top row of the screen is the 'title bar'; it shows nano's      |
+  | version, the name of the file, and whether you modified it.        |
+  | The two bottom rows display the most important shortcuts; in       |
+  | those lines ^ means Ctrl.  The third row from the bottom shows     |
+  | some feedback message, or gets replaced with a prompt bar when     |
+  | you tell nano to do something that requires extra input.           |

 Bug Reports
 
-    To report a bug, please file a description of the problem on nano's
-    bug tracker (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=nano -- hover on
-    "Bugs", then click "Submit new").  The issue may have already been
-    reported, so please look first.
+    If you find a bug, please file a detailed description of the problem
+    on nano's issue tracker: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=nano
+    (you will need an account to be able to do so), or send an email
+    to the nano-devel list (no need to subscribe, but mention it if
+    you want to be CC'ed on an answer).
 
-Current Status
-
-    Since version 2.5.0, GNU nano has abandoned the distinction between
-    a stable and a development branch: it is now on a "rolling" release
-    -- fixing bugs and adding new features go hand in hand.
-
-Copyright Years
-
-    When in any file of this package a copyright notice mentions a
-    year range (such as 1999-2011), it is a shorthand for a list of
-    all the years in that interval.

 <h3><a name="1.3"></a>1.3. Why the name change from TIP?</h3>
 <blockquote><p>On January 10, 2000, TIP was officially renamed to nano because of a namespace conflict with another program called 'tip'. The original 'tip' program &quot;establishes a full duplex terminal connection to a remote host&quot;, and was included with many older Unix systems (and newer ones like Solaris). The conflict was not noticed at first because there is no 'tip' utility included with most GNU/Linux distributions (where nano was developed).</p></blockquote>
