7e8ee46c09 syntax: autoconf: colorize the keywords 'case', 'esac', and 'ifelse' too
Case statements occur a lot in gnulib's m4 files,
and 'ifelse' is simply part of the m4 language.

d1e2febb6d build: update a symbol that was renamed in gnulib
As noted in a gnulib NEWS item of 2023-01-07, linking now happens
against $(CLOCK_TIME_LIB) instead of $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).

109386dfe8 syntax: nanorc: an unquoted argument of 'include' may not contain blanks
Anything after the first "word" after 'include' will be ignored
and should thus remain colorized in bright red.

ebddb49041 docs: do not quote the argument of 'include' statements in sample nanorc
This avoids those arguments getting colorized as if they were regexes
(when the relevant lines are uncommented), and instead allows them to
get colorized in bold purple by a dedicated rule.

b5f320a2f9 tweaks: delete three redundant checks from the undo/redo code
Since commit 50954a4b from two years ago, a replacing session will
not ever change the final empty line, and thus a fresh magic line
will never need to be undone or redone.

This complements commit c6a26641 from five months ago.

fe0b928b39 tweaks: move a condition to the only place that needs it
Most calls of draw_all_subwindows() are made while in the edit window.
The only call that could occur while in the file browser is the one in
regenerate_screen().  So only this call needs to be guarded against
being made while the file list is being shown.

af2f218192 bindings: at a Yes-No-All prompt, accept also ^A for "All"

avoiding the need to guide the input method to produce "A".

4b03cc60cf moving: for Alt+Home/Alt+End, refresh the screen when the mark is on
When the mark is on, moving the cursor to the top or bottom row should
highlight the relevant area -- thus requiring a call of edit_refresh()
to be scheduled.

Also, drop two calls of place_the_cursor(), as that is done anyhow in
the main loop, either directly, or indirectly through edit_refresh().

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65992.
Reported-by: Tasos Papastylianou <tpapastylianou@hotmail.com>

Bug existed since version 8.0, since Alt+Home/Alt+End were introduced.

c356db9f44 macro: insert it in keystroke buffer without discarding latter's contents
Instead of simply overwriting the current contents of the keystroke
buffer with the contents of the macro buffer, insert the latter's
contents at the head of the keystroke buffer.

This allows using {runmacro} in a string bind, and allows typing ahead
over a laggy connection after invoking `runmacro` (normally with M-;).

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65991.
Reported-by: Tasos Papastylianou <tpapastylianou@hotmail.com>

Bug exists since version 2.9.4, since string binds were introduced.

7d8f13b9f7 build: use the standard autoreconf invocation
As version 0.20 of `autopoint` no longer overwrites 'extern-inline.m4',
there is no need any more for the custom calls of the various parts of
`autoreconf`.

This effectively reverts commit 4a1db96d from two and a half years ago.

ec177c84b3 build: require version 0.20 of gettext for building nano from git
Gettext-0.20 is the first version where its `autopoint` does not
overwrite the newer 'extern-inline.m4' from gnulib.

Version 0.20 is five years old, so most users will be on a distro
that includes that version of gettext or a newer one.

498154804c bindings: let ^L put the cursor line at center, then top, then bottom
Something similar can be achieved with:

  bind ^T "{center}{bottomrow}{center}{toprow}" main
  bind ^B "{center}{toprow}{center}{bottomrow}" main

But that requires allocating two extra shortcuts, and it works right only
when the edit window has an odd number of rows, not with an even number.
Also, this new ^L behavior is available by default, out-of-the-box.

d477bfd4ee tweaks: drop two redundant conditions

6c81f60914 moving: use edit_scroll() only when scrolling one row is enough
When softwrapping with a tabsize larger than the width of the viewport,
scrolling one row when the cursor goes offscreen might not be enough,
so in that case use edit_redraw() instead.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65860.

a98f82e27b startup: no not activate --modernbindings when name starts with "e"
Activating --modernbindings when the binary's name starts with "e"
interferes with Debian's alternatives system that symlinks `editor`
to `nano` in a default install.

(Also: why "e"?  It would have made more sense to check for "m",
similar to the checking for "r" for a restricted nano.)

This reverts commit 580eaf29 from fifteen months ago.

This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65810.
