<h2><a name="3.6"></a>3.6. How can I make the executable smaller? This is too bloated!</h2>
<blockquote><p>Actually, there are several parts of the editor that can be disabled. You can pass arguments to the <b>configure</b> script that disable certain features. Here's a brief list:</p>
<pre>
<b>--disable-browser</b> Disable built-in file browser
<b>--disable-browser</b> Disable the built-in file browser
<b>--disable-color</b> Disable color and syntax highlighting
<b>--disable-extra</b> Disable extra features, currently only an easter egg
<b>--disable-extra</b> Disable extra features (currently only an easter egg)
<b>--disable-help</b> Disable help functions
<b>--disable-histories</b> Disable the saving of search strings and cursor positions
<b>--disable-justify</b> Disable justify/unjustify functions
<b>--disable-mouse</b> Disable mouse support (and -m flag)
<b>--disable-libmagic</b> Disable the use of libmagic for determining a file's syntax
<b>--disable-mouse</b> Disable mouse support
<b>--disable-multibuffer</b> Disable having multiple file buffers open
<b>--disable-nanorc</b> Disable the use of .nanorc files
<b>--disable-operatingdir</b> Disable setting of operating directory
<b>--disable-operatingdir</b> Disable the setting of an operating directory
<b>--disable-speller</b> Disable spell checker functions
<b>--disable-tabcomp</b> Disable tab completion functions
<b>--disable-wrapping</b> Disable all wrapping of text (and -w flag)</pre>
<b>--disable-wrapping</b> Disable all hard-wrapping of text</pre>
<p>There's also the <b>--enable-tiny</b> option which disables everything above, as well as some larger chunks of the program (like the marker code that you use with Control-^ to select text). Also, if you know you aren't going to be using other languages you can use <b>--disable-nls</b> to disable internationalization and save a few K to a few dozen K depending on if you have locale support on your system. And finally there's always good old <b>strip</b> to strip all debugging code and code that exists in libraries on your system.</p>
<p>With <b>--disable-wrapping-as-root</b> you can disable any hard-wrapping by default when the user is root, useful to prevent accidentally changing long lines in system configuration files.</p>

<h2><a name="4.5"></a>4.5. How do I type the F13-F16 keys shown in the help browser? My keyboard only has F1-F12!</h2>
<blockquote><p>It depends on the terminal type you're using. On some terminals, such as the FreeBSD console, xterm, konsole, and gnome-terminal, Shift-F1 to Shift-F4 will generate F13 to F16. On other terminals, such as the Linux console, rxvt, and Eterm, Shift-F3 to Shift-F6 will generate F13 to F16.</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="4.6"></a>4.6. nano crashes when I type &lt;insert keystroke here&gt;!</h2>

You are welcome to submit it to the <a href="mailto:nano-devel@gnu.org">nano-devel</a> list or in the <a href="https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=nano">bug database</a> on Savannah.</p></blockquote>

<h2><a name="4.7"></a>4.7. nano crashes when I resize my window. How can I fix that?</h2>
<blockquote><p>Older versions of nano had this problem, please upgrade to a newer version (at least 0.9.9, but 2.4.2 is recommended).</p></blockquote>
