Changes between v2.9.6 and v2.9.7:
----------------------------------
Benno Schulenberg (21):
bindings: add the 'linenumbers' bindable function
bindings: rename constupdate to constantshow, cuttoend to cutfromcursor
bump version numbers and add a news item for the 2.9.7 release
docs: add notes about deprecated options and function names
docs: break down some old improvements further per version
docs: note a small difference with Pico in the default hard-wrapping
docs: say thanks to three recent translators, and re-sort two others
docs: slightly improve the description of the file browser in the manual
main: clear a spurious error number, to avoid irrelevant messages later
prompt: when asking for Yes/No/All, recognize also UTF-8 letters
scrolling: only do a scroll when the edit window has more than one row
signals: don't trap segfault/abort when envvar NANO_NOCATCH is defined
signals: exclude the crash handler from the tiny version
startup: suggest using ^D to finish reading from standard input
tweaks: improve a couple of comments
tweaks: normalize indentation and whitespace after previous changes
tweaks: put check for -h and -l options in their alphabetical positions
tweaks: put Yes/No/All in a consistent order (for the translators)
tweaks: rename two variables, to be more descriptive
tweaks: sort an option better, and reschedule a removal
tweaks: use symbolic names instead of puzzling TRUE and FALSE
Devin Hussey (1):
signals: upon a crash, save changed buffers and reset terminal state
Mark-Weston (1):
new feature: an option to make the 'nextword' function stop at word ends

- A crash handler that saves changed buffers in case of a crash.

2018.05.15 - GNU nano 2.9.7 "Hvide Sande" adds the option '--afterends'
for making Ctrl+Right (the nextword function) stop at word
ends instead of beginnings, accepts multibyte letters for
the Yes/No/All answers, does emergency saves of changed
buffers in the unlikely event that nano crashes, adds the
until-now missing bindable function 'linenumbers', and
renames the toggles 'constupdate' to 'constantshow' and
'cuttoend' to 'cutfromcursor', for consistency with the
corresponding options -- adjust your nanorc files soon.
2018.04.27 - GNU nano 2.9.6 "Gomance" fixes a crash in word completion,
makes --enable-altrcname work again, improves the fluidity
of scrolling when using the touchpad, tweaks the syntaxes

<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>
<h3><a name="1.4"></a>1.4. What is the current version of nano?</h3>
<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>2.9.6</b>. Of course, you should always check the <a href="https://nano-editor.org/">nano homepage</a> to see what the latest and greatest version is.</p></blockquote>

<h3><a name="1.5"></a>1.5. I want to read the man page without having to download the program!</h3>
