+2017.03.31 - GNU nano 2.8.0 "Axat" makes it easier to move around in
+ softwrapped lines: the Up and Down keys now step from
+ visual row to visual row instead of jumping between
+ logical lines, and the Home and End keys now move to
+ the start and end of a row, and only when already
+ there, then to the start and end of the logical line.
+ Furthermore, the screen can now scroll per row instead
+ of always per logical line. On an entirely different
+ front: nano now makes use of gnulib, to make it build
+ on more platforms. In short: there were many internal
+ changes, not many user-visible ones (apart form the
+ new softwrap navigation). The conversion to gnulib
+ was done by Mike Frysinger, the softwrap overhaul by
+ David Ramsey.

2017.02.23 - GNU nano 2.7.5 "Nijntje" can properly search and replace
the \B and \b regex anchors, correctly repaints things
when multiline regexes with identical start and end are

<h2><a name="1.5"></a>1.5. 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 "establishes a full duplex terminal connection to a remote host", 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>
