NEWS

+2009.02.07 - GNU nano 2.1.8 "unsafe at any speed" is released.  This
+		release include some long overdue performance 
+		improvements in syntax color highlighting, the ability
+		to abort running searches (useful mainly when
+		editing very large files) and the ability to use nano
+		like a pager for viewing standard input (i.e. "nano -").
+		Additionally, there are gentoo syntax highlighting 
+		updates and fixes for issues with reading files 
+		in a directory with strange parent directory permissions. 
+		The key bindings code was also substantially changed 
+		in order to be more ISO-C compatible.  Be sure to use 
+		the Savannah page not only for bug reports but for any 
+		features you would like to see before the next stable 
+		series is released.  Have fun with it!

 		campaign promises of lower bug rates and 50% more pie.
 		This release includes a new check for external
