<p>You can move between the buffers you have open with the <b>Meta-&lt;</b> and <b>Meta-&gt;</b> keys, or more easily with <b>Meta-,</b> and <b>Meta-.</b> (clear as mud, right? =-). When you have more than one file buffer open, the ^X shortcut will say &quot;Close&quot;, instead of the normal &quot;Exit&quot; when only one buffer is open.</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="3.8"></a>3.8. Tell me more about this verbatim input stuff!</h2>
<blockquote><p>To use verbatim input, you must be using nano 1.3.1 or newer. When you want to insert a literal character into the file you're editing, such as a control character that nano usually treats as a command, first press <b>Meta-V</b>. (If you're not at a prompt, you'll get the message &quot;Verbatim Input&quot;.) Then press the key(s) that generate the character you want.</p>
<p>Alternatively, you can press <b>Meta-V</b> and then type a six-digit hexadecimal code from 000000 to 10FFFF (case-insensitive), and the character with the corresponding value will be inserted instead.</p></blockquote>
<p>Alternatively, if you've enabled Unicode support (see section <a href="#5.3">5.3</a>), you can press <b>Meta-V</b> and then type a six-digit hexadecimal code from 000000 to 10FFFF (case-insensitive), and the character with the corresponding value will be inserted instead. The prompt will change to &quot;Unicode Input&quot; when you do this.</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="3.9"></a>3.9. How do I make a .nanorc file that nano will read when I start it?</h2>
<blockquote><p>It's not hard at all! But, your version of nano must have been compiled with <b>--enable-nanorc</b>, and again must be version 1.1.12 or newer (use nano -V to check your version and compiled features). Then simply copy the <b>nanorc.sample</b> that came with the nano source or your nano package (most likely in /usr/doc/nano) to .nanorc in your home directory. If you didn't get one, the syntax is simple. Flags are turned on and off by using the word <b>set</b> and the getopt_long flag for the feature, for example &quot;set nowrap&quot; or &quot;set suspend&quot;.</p></blockquote>

<p>2006/05/12 - Remove section 4.4, and move all section 4 entries after it up one number, since it no longer applies. Meta-] and Meta-[ are no longer used to indent and unindent marked text, since they require that the bracket matching key change to Ctrl-], which is used as the telnet escape key (found by Chris). Also, make the link to the nano CVS page a bit more readable. (DLR)<br>

2006/05/08 - Add a new section 4.5, and move all section 4 entries after it down one number, to explain a problem that can occur when holding down keys to generate Meta sequences. Also add a few more capitalization and wording fixes. (Benno Schulenberg, minor tweaks by DLR)<br>
