Benno Schulenberg 75b312ded1 revert the previous commit -- forget about -? as a synonym for --help
An ambiguous option like --back or --word would cause nano to spew
the entire help text.  It should do the latter only when the user
explicitly requests it.

Mateusz Kazimierczuk e65b0ba654 options: add -? as a synonym of -h (--help)
The short option '-?' was removed nine years ago in commit 43019189,
then restored six years later in 5bd92d4c, and then removed again two
months later in 743100fe due to getopt() returning '?' for options
that aren't recognized, preventing the use of '-?' as a valid option.

However, getopt() provides a way to check for unrecognized options
via the 'optopt' variable, which gets set only for invalid options.

Benno Schulenberg d3dd403dc7 browser: report an error instead of crashing when the folder disappears
When the directory that the user is browsing in is deleted by another
process at the moment that nano is building the list of file names,
this can result in an empty list, which some items in the main loop
in browse() cannot handle.  Prevent this mishandling by not entering
the loop when the list is empty.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64465.

Benno Schulenberg fc42ab9b46 bindings: allow speller and friends to be rebound also in restricted mode
Speller, linter, formatter, and execute-a-command cannot be used in
restricted mode, but the relevant keys should report that the function
is *disabled*, not that the key is unbound.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64226.

Problem existed since version 3.2, since nano reads the nanorc files
also in restricted mode.

Benno Schulenberg 7f17777a4b docs: mention that a restricted nano does not access the history files
With some imagination, the lack of access could be inferred from the
other descriptions, but it's much better to be clear and explicit.

Also, separate two items that are unrelated and reshuffle them into
a neater order.

Benno Schulenberg 7abddbd752 tweaks: slightly improve a comment, to be more accurate
A string bind can only contain bytes (chars), not keycodes (integers,
in nano upto 0x4FF).  So, apart from an error code or a placeholder
command code, get_code_from_plantation() can only return a byte.
2023-01-26 17:01:02 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 51c9f7270c input: let the handler of string binds return a byte whenever possible
The function get_code_from_plantation() should return ERR only when
the string bind is fully exhausted.  In the normal case, where some
bytes are still available, it should return the first of these bytes,
so that the {verbatim} function will work too.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63702.
