+      feedback: upon first switch to a buffer, show its error message (if any)
+      files: always register the format, also when the file is unwritable
+      files: create a new buffer earlier, so that error messages can be stored

+      tweaks: reshuffle a fragment of code, to prepare for the next change
+      tweaks: reshuffle two conditions, to have the most unlikely one first
+      tweaks: set the file format only when unset, so it doesn't need saving

+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'.

 <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>
