2020.08.12 - GNU nano 5.1  "Cantabria"

=E2=80=A2 M-Bsp (Alt+Backspace) deletes a word backwards, like in Bash.
=E2=80=A2 M-[ has become bindable.  (Be careful, though: as it is the
  starting combination of many escape sequences, avoid gluing
  it together with other keystrokes, like in a macro.)
=E2=80=A2 With --indicator and --softwrap, the first keystroke in an
  empty buffer does not crash.
=E2=80=A2 Invoking the formatter while text is marked does not crash.
=E2=80=A2 In UTF-8 locales, an anchor is shown as a diamond.


GNU nano is a simple and easy-to-use editor for on the terminal.
