Also, add the normal CUA bindings for Undo (^Z) and Redo (^Y),
and drop the M-X thinko.
With these more "usual" alternative bindings, ^X will now do a Cut
(putting the cut text into the cutbuffer) only when in the main menu
-- in the other places it did not put anything into the cutbuffer,
so it's better to have only the default ^K ("kill") for that.
Suspension is now accessible with ^E^Z, and the Speller with ^E^S.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60766.
Bug existed since version 3.2, commit 33d67d5c,
since the more usual example bindings were introduced.
And mention that a background color does not work on libvte before 0.55.
To find out the version of libvte on your system:
ls -R1 /usr/lib | grep libvte | grep 00 | grep -o "0\..."
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.
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.
Because ^C is needed for Cancel in most other menus.

Bug existed since version 4.0, commit 3a170d2c.
Instead of saying that string parameters should be enclosed in
double quotes, just show the quotes in the relevant commands.
Also, rename the parameters, to better fit the subsequent description.
It's not just about the numeric keypad, but about the interpretation
of all editing keys (arrows, Home, End, PageUp, PageDown, Insert, and
Delete), of the escape sequences that they produce.
To better describe what it does, and to have full contrast with the
--rebinddelete option: the latter can now be shortened to --rebind
without getting a conflict, and --rawsequences can be abbreviated
to simply --raw and still make sense.
Using --zap or -Z on the command line, or 'set zap' in a nanorc file,
makes the <Bsp> and <Del> keys erase selected text (a marked region)
as they do in some other editors, and without affecting the cutbuffer.
This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54837.

It would result in having both <Delete> and <Backspace> behaving as
Backspace, which seems senseless -- unless the <Delete> key produces
ASCII DEL and --rebinddelete is needed to make it behave as Delete.
In the latter case it would make more sense if --rebinddelete made
both rebindings: ASCII DEL to Delete and KEY_DC to Backspace, like
it used to be in the distant past, before commit 79a33bb3.
