v7.2-16

NANO CHANGES

• new feature: interpret also <filename>:<linenumber> when opening a file

  Various tools will output filenames with line numbers in the format
  <filename>:<line>:<column>. Support this format in addition to the
  +<line>,<column> format when opening files.

• tweaks: avoid calling isblank()/isalpha() on what could be a signed char

  The isxxxxx() functions expect their parameter to be either EOF or
  a value in the unsigned char range. Passing a negative char value
  could (in theory) result in unexpected behavior.

• tweaks: rename a struct element, to avoid a theoretical name collision

  The <term.h> header file form ncurses defines the name "tab".

v7.2-13.3

v7.2-13-10168

NANO CHANGES

• docs: clarify that a fileregex is matched against the absolute filename
• docs: add two examples of custom key bindings to the nanorc manpage
• shutdown: ignore a modified buffer when in view mode
  In view mode it should be impossible to modify any buffer, but...
  when (through some bug) the user did succeed in modifying a buffer,
  this should not lead to writing out this modified buffer to disk.
  Had this safety stop been present earlier, it would have prevented
  the second part of https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63616.
