+2022.04.28 - GNU nano 6.3 "Wat zullen we drinken? Wat een dorst!"
+• For multiline regexes, text is now colored as soon a start match
+  is found, also when there is no end match at all.
+• The colorizing of any line is stopped after two thousand bytes,
+  to avoid frustrating delays.
+• When environment variable NO_COLOR is set, the two default colors
+  (yellow for the spotlight, red for error messages) are suppressed
+  when no interface colors are specified in a nanorc file.
+• Full justification and piping the whole buffer through a command
+  now keep the cursor at the same line number.
+• Utility 'xsel' can be used to copy a marked region to the system's
+  clipboard.  See doc/sample.nanorc for an example.
+
 2022.02.18 - GNU nano 6.2 "Kamperfoelie"
 • The file browser clears the prompt bar also when using --minibar.
 • Linting now works also with a newer 'pyflakes'.

 <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>6.2</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>
