----------------------------------
Benno Schulenberg (65):
build: fix compilation when configured with --enable(tiny,color,nanorc}

build: let ./configure fail (not just warn) when curses.h is missing
bump version numbers and add a news item for the 2.9.3 release

display: wipe the status bar when doing a total refresh
docs: remove the note about needing a recent ncurses for macros to work
docs: update the FAQ for the changed default location of history files
docs: update the TODO file to the current state of affairs
gnulib: update to its current upstream state
help: don't get stuck when there is an unwrappable piece of text
input: consume only the actual length of an escape sequence
input: fully reset state when a three-digit character code is cut short
input: make <Shift+Tab> do an unindent also on a Manjaro console
input: recognize escape sequences for <Shift+PageUp> and <Shift+PageDown>
input: recognize more escape sequences for <Shift+Home> and <Shift+End>
input: recognize the deviant keycode for <Ctrl+End> in urxvt
options: recognize -M and --trimblanks on the command line
painting: look for an end match only after a start match, if any
prompt: show whitespace only in the filename, not in the whole line
replacing: don't skip the first character of a backwards-marked region
search: suppress the occurrence at the cursor only when replacing
startup: allow a named pipe as file argument when --noread is used
startup: make an error message succinct and to the point
startup: move the initialization of colors, so any error gets printed
syntax: go: colorize only valid octal numbers
syntax: lua: do not color debug.setinfo as it doesn't exist
syntax: nanohelp: color also the Sh-Tab key combo
tweaks: change a 'do' to a 'while', and return early to elide an 'if'
tweaks: check for the type of terminal far earlier
tweaks: condense a condition and a comment, and reshuffle a line
tweaks: condense and rewrap some comments, and reindent two lines
tweaks: condense the conditional compilation of shortcut reassignments
tweaks: don't bother freeing the key buffer, just reallocate it
tweaks: don't bother to reallocate when the keybuffer size decreases
tweaks: drop a superfluous parameter, as it is always 1
tweaks: drop a useless assert, and don't abort over an unhandled option
tweaks: drop two unneeded initializations, and trim a comment
tweaks: elide a tiny intermediate buffer, and rename two variables
tweaks: exclude --trimblanks when no wrapping or justifying is configured
tweaks: fully include Savefile and Wherewas in the tiny version

tweaks: mark the two blocks that have a deviant indentation
tweaks: move a bunch of comments to the lines that they refer to
tweaks: move two functions to their proper place, orderingwise
tweaks: remove a fragment of dead code
tweaks: remove a handful of redundant (because always true) asserts
tweaks: remove a superfluous case -- there can never be four digits
tweaks: remove a superfluous check, as we insert always one code
tweaks: rename a function, for aptness, and drop a superfluous check
tweaks: rename a function, to be more distinct
tweaks: rename a variable, and further condense some comments
tweaks: rename a variable, for more contrast
tweaks: rename a variable, to better fit its usage
tweaks: rename two variables, and swap their declaration order
tweaks: rename two variables, for preciseness and shortness
tweaks: reshuffle a couple of lines
tweaks: reshuffle a couple of lines, to make a bit more sense
tweaks: reshuffle some stuff, and avoid a memory leak
tweaks: reshuffle two condition series, to look better
tweaks: rewrap a bunch of lines in the NEWS file
tweaks: set a modifier in a single place, for conciseness
tweaks: swap the row and col parameters to a more consistent order
tweaks: transform a parameter, from a pointer to the value itself
wrapping: don't trim a blank character that the user just typed
Brand Huntsman (1):
startup: parse interface colors when they are read, not when initialized

2018.01.29 - GNU nano 2.9.3 "Córdoba" fixes a segfault with trimblanks
that could occur when a typed space caused the word after
it to be pushed to the next line. It further makes macros
work also when your keyboard still emits escape sequences,
adds the options -M and --trimblanks for the command line,
recognizes key combos with Shift on a few more terminals,
no longer shows dots in certain prompt texts when visible
witespace is turned on, fixes two corner cases when doing
replacements in a marked region, allows to open a named
pipe again when using --noread, and accurately detects
a needed color change when a line contains a start match
but not a corresponding end match any more. Plus some
other small fry.
2018.01.02 - GNU nano 2.9.2 "Pussy Riot" correctly displays the Modified
state when undoing/redoing (also when the file was saved
somewhere midway), improves the undoing of an automatic

<h2><a name="1.3"></a>1.3. Why the name change from TIP?</h2>
<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>
<h2><a name="1.4"></a>1.4. What is the current version of nano?</h2>
<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>2.9.2</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>
