  ls -R1 /usr/lib | grep libvte | grep 00 | grep -o "0\..."

71752f47cb docs: reshuffle the section about the file browser to a better place 
First mention the three main 'pieces' of the editor: Editing window,
Help viewer, and File browser.  Then mention how to change settings:
with the toggles or with nanorc files.

b5fb41e963 docs: mention in the FAQ how to change the escape sequences of urxvt 
Replace an obsolete question that doesn't have a good answer: setting
TERM to vt100 is unlikely to make the more complicated keystrokes work,
which are the ones that are most likely not to work.

ee78f2348b rcfile: rename bindable function 'curpos' to 'location' 
It is better that the bindable function is named the same as the
tag in the help lines, and that it is not an ugly abbreviation.

1a2d0c1770 scrolling: add a function and a key binding to center the cursor line 
By default, this function is bound to ^L, to make that keystroke do
something actually useful.  To not lose the Refresh function that this
keystroke had, the centering function additionally does a full redraw
and refresh of the screen.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Also remove their documentation entries.

(The nanorc options still remain -- to be removed next year.)

d141e849a3 tweaks: unabbreviate "argument" in the documentation

as any command requires at least one argument.  Also mention 'tabgives'
among the commands that are allowed in an included file.
