@x86txt: Replace the …/nano/7.0/share/… part with …/nano/*/share/… so you don't have to keep updating your .nanorc file every time nano updates to a newer version.
Worked for me:
brew install nano nanorc
echo 'include "/usr/local/Cellar/nano/*/share/nano/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorc
Worked for me:
brew install nano nanorc
echo 'include "/opt/homebrew/share/nanorc/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorcmacOS Ventura 13.2.1
Homebrew 4.0.13
Thanks, updated the gist @s-ota-66
Thanks all for the guide! Can confirm current version is working on 13.3.1
Better to use $(brew --prefix) to work with both Intel & ARM chips
brew install nano nanorc
echo 'include "'"$(brew --prefix)"'/share/nanorc/*.nanorc"'
echo 'include "/usr/local/Cellar/nano/*/share/nano/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorc
Works for Sonora
echo 'include "/usr/local/Cellar/nano/*/share/nano/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorc
Probably it would be better to use
echo 'include "'"$(brew --cellar nano)"'/*/share/nano/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorc
so in such case it will use the right path depends on if mac uses Intel or Apple Silicon
as of today, may 13th 2024, the following works without issues on sonoma 14.4.1 with and brew 4.2.21:
brew install nano
echo 'include "'"$(brew --cellar nano)"'/*/share/nano/*.nanorc"' >> ~/.nanorc
thanks everyone for keeping this going :)
Updated the gist thanks @tobsn
For macOS Ventura:
brew install nano nanorcecho "include /opt/homebrew/Cellar/nano/7.0/share/nano/*.nanorc" >> ~/.nanorcmv ~/.nanorc ~/.nanorc.orig && echo "include /opt/homebrew/Cellar/nano/7.0/share/nano/*.nanorc" > ~/.nanorc
