2011.02.26 - GNU nano 2.3.0 "Septic surprise" is released. This first
release in the 2.3 unstable series brings several new
features. First, libmagic support for syntax highlighting
has been added on top of the existing file extension
and header support already available. Secondly, cursor
position can be saved between editing sessions with
the -P or --poslog command-line flag, or via 'set poslog'
in your .nanorc. Also included are some fixes for
compilation with g++, and better handling of issues
writing the backup file, which should reduce the need
for the 'set allow_insecure_backup' nanorc option.
