+		Besides that, nano now works also when run in very tiny
+		terminals (down to one line, one column), and improves
+		the handling of the prompt in cramped spaces.  Not much,
+		but it's time to get it out there.

 When a more precise piece of text needs to be cut or copied, one can mark
 its start with \fB^6\fR, move the cursor to its end (the marked text will be
 highlighted), and then use \fB^K\fR to cut it, or \fBM-6\fR to copy it to the
