Changes between v2.9.0 and v2.9.1:
----------------------------------
Benno Schulenberg (20):
build: fix compilation with --disable-browser --disable-tabcomp
bump version numbers and add a news item for the 2.9.1 release
files: always update the stat info when the entire file is written
files: save the marked region only when we've prompted for a file name
gnulib: update to its current upstream state
history: create the path '~/.local/share/' when it is needed
history: make nano's state directory accessible for the user only
history: save the positions file also when a record was deleted
input: make the macro key discoverable by giving feedback when undefined
linting: switch the mark off when the linter starts
selecting: do not cancel the softmark when the cursor is not moved
selecting: let a justification cancel a softmark
syntax: adjust the magic strings for the changes since file-5.10
tweaks: adjust indentation after previous change
tweaks: elide the 'mark_set' boolean -- the 'mark' pointer is enough
tweaks: rename, rewrap, and reshuffle some stuff, and frob some comments
tweaks: reshuffle a couple of lines, and frob a comment or two
tweaks: reshuffle a couple of lines, to put similar things together
undo: clear the Modified state when the very first edit is undone
undo: discarding the stack does not always lose information
Changes between v2.8.7 and v2.9.0:
----------------------------------
......
2017.11.27 - GNU nano 2.9.1 "Damyatta" fixes a bug where, when the mark
is on, ^S would overwrite the file with just the marked
region. This release further clears the "Modified" flag
when all edits are undone, adds or updates some magic
strings, and does not forget when the cursor was last
at line 1, column 1.
2017.11.18 - GNU nano 2.9.0 "Eta" introduces the ability to record and
replay keystrokes (M-: to start and stop recording, M-;
to play the macro back), makes ^Q and ^S do something

<h2><a name="1.3"></a>1.3. Why the name change from TIP?</h2>
<blockquote><p>On January 10, 2000, TIP was officially renamed to nano because of a namespace conflict with another program called 'tip'. The original 'tip' program &quot;establishes a full duplex terminal connection to a remote host&quot;, and was included with many older Unix systems (and newer ones like Solaris). The conflict was not noticed at first because there is no 'tip' utility included with most GNU/Linux distributions (where nano was developed).</p></blockquote>
<h2><a name="1.4"></a>1.4. What is the current version of nano?</h2>
<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>2.9.0</b>. Of course, you should always check the <a href="https://nano-editor.org/">nano homepage</a> to see what the latest and greatest version is.</p></blockquote>

<h2><a name="1.5"></a>1.5. I want to read the man page without having to download the program!</h2>
<blockquote><p>Jeez, demanding, aren't we? Okay, look <a href="https://nano-editor.org/dist/latest/nano.1.html">here</a>.</p></blockquote>
