Benno Schulenberg 054cafa138 docs: mention the nine new color names, and "bold" plus "italic" 2020-06-18 15:31:06 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 26fb83c61f docs: use 'bold' and 'light' instead of 'bright' in the sample nanorc 2020-06-15 15:30:52 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 7ff82aa5e2 rcfile: add bindable function 'execute', for access to "Execute Command" 
(This should have been added three weeks ago when ^T was rebound.)
 2020-06-15 14:27:49 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 32ee39e44a docs: document the --indicator (-q) and 'set indicator' options 2020-06-04 18:52:28 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg d9106abfda rcfile: rename 'extcmd' to 'execute', to be more readable and fitting 
Also, improve its description in the documentation.
 2020-05-31 12:04:58 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 09a004cad9 tweaks: order three menu names in the documentation slightly better 2020-05-24 11:24:49 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg d4ee6a2b53 options: rename --tempfile to --saveonexit, to be far clearer 
A long option should describe what it does, not vaguely hint at it.

Also, in several places of nano's code we deal with actual temp files,
and then having a flag called TEMP_FILE that doesn't have anything to
do with temp files is somewhat confusing.

Benno Schulenberg af062af490 docs: mention that doing a full-buffer operation wipes away all anchors 2020-04-30 18:58:17 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 56d1214187 syntax: move distro-specific files down to a subdirectory, syntax/extra/ 2020-04-14 19:05:41 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 5755ecdbfc options: let --afterends affect also the deleting of words (Ctrl+Delete) 
It makes more sense that <Ctrl+Delete> deletes the same thing as what
<Shift+Ctrl+Right> would select.

Benno Schulenberg bcaa1ef7f2 docs: explain how anchors work, and document their bindable functions 2020-04-13 12:20:36 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg edf2d8d68f docs: mention that the dedicated cursor-moving keys are not rebindable 2020-04-10 12:25:02 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 66e64dd2d2 docs: in the sample nanorc file, refer instead of duplicating 
Instead of duplicating information, just refer to 'man nanorc'.

Also reshuffle a paragraph, and add a suggestion to just select
the syntax files that will actually get used.
 2020-04-09 10:27:39 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 2d4bacf61d docs: stop mentioning that --wordchars overrides --wordbounds 
Since the previous commit, it no longer does.  Instead, the two
interfere, and the user probably wants to use just one of them.
 2020-04-06 19:07:02 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 7d3aad403d options: make -S the short synonym of --softwrap 
The form -$ is still accepted, but is deprecated.
 2020-03-27 17:02:55 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg aa70f3d95e options: stop recognizing the obsolete --morespace and --smooth 
They have been no-ops for a year.

Also remove their documentation entries.

(The nanorc options still remain -- to be removed next year.)
 2020-03-27 16:54:09 +01:00

Benno Schulenberg 39ed865043 docs: improve the descriptions of --softwrap and 'set softwrap' 2020-03-19 13:10:28 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 3690d60b71 rcfile: rename bindable function 'suspendenable' to 'suspendable' 
The name of a toggle function should match the name of the corresponding
option, like for 'mouse' and 'linenumbers' and 'smarthome' and such.
 2020-03-15 11:17:46 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 067ee1a6b1 tweaks: highlight keystrokes in the documentation more consistently 2020-03-13 16:40:34 +01:00

Benno Schulenberg a91bc04e04 docs: update the form of an option, --suspendable / 'set suspendable' 2020-03-13 15:58:56 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 639f37669a docs: remove the note saying that nanorc files must be in Unix format 
Since commit 98f038ad from a month ago, nanorc files do not need to be
in Unix format (LF) but may also be in DOS (CR+LF) and Mac (CR) format.
 2020-03-12 19:03:02 +01:00

Benno Schulenberg 0856f53703 docs: mention that -D/--boldtext gets overridden by some nanorc options 
Also, remove an obsolete anchor, and add a missing word.
 2020-02-06 16:07:11 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 7f0bfdfeb2 docs: put the three new behaviors in a bulletted list, to catch the eye 
Also, move the relevant section down in the nanorc man page, to increase
the contrast between the two pages.
 2020-02-06 16:07:11 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg d141e849a3 tweaks: unabbreviate "argument" in the documentation 
Also, show that the argument in the extendsyntax format is not optional,
as any command requires at least one argument.  Also mention 'tabgives'
among the commands that are allowed in an included file.
 2020-02-04 12:23:58 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 3f5ba950d6 tweaks: suggest a few more alternative key bindings and unbindings 
This demonstrates the presence of the 'savefile' function,
and makes the main help text look better.
 2020-01-31 17:16:31 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 0a52e92d4c docs: for the alternative bindings, rebind ^C only in the main menu 
Because ^C is needed for Cancel in most other menus.

This fixes https://bugs.debian.org/950223.

Use bolded HTML entities for the four arrows, instead of the literal
