+2019.04.15 - GNU nano 4.1 "Qué corchos será eso?"
+• By default, a newline character is again automatically added at the
+ end of a buffer, to produce valid POSIX text files by default, but
+ also to get back the easy adding of text at the bottom.
+• The now unneeded option --finalnewline (-f) has been removed.
+• Syntax files are read in alphabetical order when globbing, so that
+ the precedence of syntaxes becomes predictable.
+• In the C syntax, preprocessor directives are highlighted differently.
+• M-S now toggles soft wrapping, and M-N toggles line numbers.
+• The jumpy-scrolling toggle has been removed.
+• The legacy keystrokes ^W^Y and ^W^V are recognized again.
+• Executing an external command is disallowed when in view mode.
+• Problems with resizing during external or speller commands were fixed.
+
2019.03.24 - GNU nano 4.0 "Thy Rope of Sands"
• An overlong line is no longer automatically hard-wrapped.
• Smooth scrolling (one line at a time) has become the default.

<h3><a name="1.3"></a>1.3. Why the name change from TIP?</h3>
<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>
<h3><a name="1.4"></a>1.4. What is the current version of nano?</h3>
-<blockquote><p>The current version of nano <i>should</i> be <b>4.0</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>
