## Sample initialization file for GNU nano.
##
## Please note that you must have configured nano with --enable-nanorc
## for this file to be read! Also note that this file should not be in
## DOS or Mac format, and that characters specially interpreted by the
## shell should not be escaped here.
##
## To make sure a value is disabled, use "unset <option>".
##
## For the options that take parameters, the default value is given.
## Other options are unset by default.
##
## Quotes inside string parameters don't have to be escaped with
## backslashes. The last double quote in the string will be treated as
## its end. For example, for the "brackets" option, ""')>]}" will match
## ", ', ), >, ], and }.
## Use auto-indentation.
set autoindent
## Backup files to filename~.
# set backup
## The directory to put unique backup files in.
# set backupdir ""
## Do backwards searches by default.
# set backwards
## Use bold text instead of reverse video text.
set boldtext
## The characters treated as closing brackets when justifying
## paragraphs. They cannot contain blank characters. Only closing
## punctuation, optionally followed by closing brackets, can end
## sentences.
##
set brackets ""')>]}"
## Do case sensitive searches by default.
# set casesensitive
## Constantly display the cursor position in the statusbar. Note that
## this overrides "quickblank".
set const
## Use cut to end of line by default.
# set cut
## Set the line length for wrapping text and justifying paragraphs.
## If fill is 0 or less, the line length will be the screen width less
## this number.
##
# set fill -8
## Enable ~/.nano_history for saving and reading search/replace strings.
set historylog
## The opening and closing brackets that can be found by bracket
## searches. They cannot contain blank characters. The former set must
## come before the latter set, and both must be in the same order.
##
set matchbrackets "(<[{)>]}"
## Use the blank line below the titlebar as extra editing space.
# set morespace
## Enable mouse support, if available for your system. When enabled,
## mouse clicks can be used to place the cursor, set the mark (with a
## double click), and execute shortcuts. The mouse will work in the X
## Window System, and on the console when gpm is running.
##
set mouse
## Allow multiple file buffers (inserting a file will put it into a
## separate buffer). You must have configured with --enable-multibuffer
## for this to work.
##
# set multibuffer
## Don't convert files from DOS/Mac format.
# set noconvert
## Don't follow symlinks when writing files.
# set nofollow
## Don't display the helpful shortcut lists at the bottom of the screen.
# set nohelp
## Don't add newlines to the ends of files.
# set nonewlines
## Don't wrap text at all.
# set nowrap
## Set operating directory. nano will not read or write files outside
## this directory and its subdirectories. Also, the current directory
## is changed to here, so any files are inserted from this dir. A blank
## string means the operating directory feature is turned off.
##
# set operatingdir ""
## Preserve the XON and XOFF keys (^Q and ^S).
# set preserve
## The characters treated as closing punctuation when justifying
## paragraphs. They cannot contain blank characters. Only closing
## punctuation, optionally followed by closing brackets, can end
## sentences.
##
# set punct "!.?"
## Do quick statusbar blanking. Statusbar messages will disappear after
## 1 keystroke instead of 26. Note that "const" overrides this.
##
# set quickblank
## The email-quote string, used to justify email-quoted paragraphs.
## This is an extended regular expression if your system supports them,
## otherwise a literal string. Default:
# set quotestr "^([ ]*[#:>\|}])+"
## if you have extended regular expression support, otherwise:
# set quotestr "> "
## Fix Backspace/Delete confusion problem.
# set rebinddelete
## Fix numeric keypad key confusion problem.
# set rebindkeypad
## Do extended regular expression searches by default.
set regexp
## Make the Home key smarter. When Home is pressed anywhere but at the
## very beginning of non-whitespace characters on a line, the cursor
## will jump to that beginning (either forwards or backwards). If the
## cursor is already at that position, it will jump to the true
## beginning of the line.
# set smarthome
## Use smooth scrolling as the default.
# set smooth
## Use this spelling checker instead of the internal one. This option
## does not properly have a default value.
##
set speller "aspell -x -c"
## Allow nano to be suspended.
set suspend
## Use this tab size instead of the default; it must be greater than 0.
set tabsize 4
## Convert typed tabs to spaces.
# set tabstospaces
## Save automatically on exit, don't prompt.
# set tempfile
## Disallow file modification; why would you want this in an rcfile? ;)
# set view
## The two single-column characters used to display the first characters
## of tabs and spaces. 187 in ISO 8859-1 (0000BB in Unicode) and 183 in
## ISO-8859-1 (0000B7 in Unicode) seem to be good values for these.
set whitespace ". "
## Detect word boundaries more accurately by treating punctuation
## characters as part of a word.
# set wordbounds
## Color setup
##
## Format:
##
## syntax "short description" ["filename regex" ...]
##
## The "none" syntax is reserved; specifying it on the command line is
## the same as not having a syntax at all. The "default" syntax is
## special: it takes no filename regexes, and applies to files that
## don't match any other syntax's filename regexes.
##
## color foreground,background "regex" ["regex"...]
## or
## icolor foreground,background "regex" ["regex"...]
##
## "color" will do case sensitive matches, while "icolor" will do case
## insensitive matches.
##
## Valid colors: white, black, red, blue, green, yellow, magenta, cyan.
## For foreground colors, you may use the prefix "bright" to get a
## stronger highlight.
##
## To use multi-line regexes, use the start="regex" end="regex"
## [start="regex" end="regex"...] format.
##
## If your system supports transparency, not specifying a background
## color will use a transparent color. If you don't want this, be sure
## to set the background color to black or white.
##
## If you wish, you may put your syntaxes in separate files. You can
## make use of such files (which can only include "syntax", "color", and
## "icolor" commands) as follows:
##
## include "/path/to/syntax_file.nanorc"
##
## Unless otherwise noted, the name of the syntax file (without the
## ".nanorc" extension) should be the same as the "short description"
## name inside that file. These names are kept fairly short to make
## them easier to remember and faster to type using nano's -Y option.
##
## All regexes should be extended regular expressions.
