## Sample initialization file for GNU nano.
##
## For the options that take parameters, the default value is shown.
## Other options are unset by default. To make sure that an option
## is disabled, you can use "unset <option>".
##
## Characters that are special in a shell should not be escaped here.
## Inside string parameters, quotes should not be escaped -- the last
## double quote on the line will be seen as the closing quote.
## Make 'nextword' (Ctrl+Right) and 'chopwordright' (Ctrl+Delete)
## stop at word ends instead of at beginnings.
# set afterends
## When soft line wrapping is enabled, make it wrap lines at blanks
## (tabs and spaces) instead of always at the edge of the screen.
# set atblanks
## Automatically indent a newly created line to the same number of
## tabs and/or spaces as the preceding line -- or as the next line
## if the preceding line is the beginning of a paragraph.
# set autoindent
## Back up files to the current filename plus a tilde.
# set backup
## The directory to put unique backup files in.
# set backupdir ""
## Use bold text instead of reverse video text.
# set boldtext
## Treat any line with leading whitespace as the beginning of a paragraph.
# set bookstyle
## The characters treated as closing brackets when justifying paragraphs.

## optionally followed by these closing brackets, can end sentences.
# set brackets ""')>]}"
## Automatically hard-wrap the current line when it becomes overlong.
# set breaklonglines
## Do case-sensitive searches by default.
# set casesensitive
## Constantly display the cursor position in the status bar or minibar.
# set constantshow
## Use cut-from-cursor-to-end-of-line by default.
# set cutfromcursor
## Do not use the line below the title bar, leaving it entirely blank.
# set emptyline
## Set the target width for automatic hard-wrapping and for justifying
## paragraphs. If the specified value is 0 or less, the wrapping point
## will be the terminal's width minus this number.
# set fill -8
## Draw a vertical stripe at the given column, to help judge text width.
## (This option does not have a default value.)
# set guidestripe 75
## Remember the used search/replace strings for the next session.

# set indicator
## Scroll the buffer contents per half-screen instead of per line.
# set jumpyscrolling
## Display line numbers to the left (and any anchors in the margin).
# set linenumbers
## Enable vim-style lock-files. This is just to let a vim user know you
## are editing a file [s]he is trying to edit and vice versa. There are
## no plans to implement vim-style undo state in these files.
set locking
## Fall back to slow libmagic to try and determine an applicable syntax.
# set magic
## The opening and closing brackets that are found by a matching-bracket
## search. This may not contain blank characters. The opening brackets
## must come before the closing ones, and they must be in the same order.
# set matchbrackets "(<[{)>]}"
## Suppress the title bar and show the filename plus a cursor-position
## percentage in the space of the status bar.
# set minibar
## 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
## Switch on multiple file buffers (inserting a file will put it into
## a separate buffer).
# set multibuffer

# set noconvert
## Don't display the helpful shortcut lists at the bottom of the screen.
# set nohelp
## Don't automatically add a newline when a file does not end with one.
# set nonewlines
## 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 ""
## Remember the cursor position in each file for the next editing session.
# set positionlog
## Preserve the XON and XOFF keys (^Q and ^S).
# set preserve

# set saveonexit
## Put the cursor on the highlighted item in the file browser, and
## show the cursor in the help viewer; useful for people who use a
## braille display and people with poor vision.
# set showcursor
## 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 start
## of the line (the left edge).
# set smarthome
## Spread overlong lines over multiple screen lines.
# set softwrap
## Use this spelling checker instead of the internal one. This option
## does not have a default value.

# set trimblanks
## Save files by default in Unix format (also when they were DOS or Mac).
# set unix

## 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.
## The default when in a UTF-8 locale:
# set whitespace "»·"
## The default otherwise:
# set whitespace ">."
## Detect word boundaries differently by treating punctuation
## characters as parts of words.
# set wordbounds
## The characters (besides alphanumeric ones) that should be considered
## as parts of words. This option does not have a default value. When
## set, it overrides option 'set wordbounds'.
# set wordchars "<_>."
## Let an unmodified Backspace or Delete erase the marked region (instead
## of a single character, and without affecting the cutbuffer).
# set zap
## Hide the bars plus help lines and use the whole terminal as edit area.
# set zero
## Paint the interface elements of nano. These are examples; there are
## no colors by default, except for errorcolor and spotlightcolor.
# set titlecolor bold,white,blue
# set promptcolor lightwhite,grey
# set statuscolor bold,white,green
# set errorcolor bold,white,red
# set spotlightcolor black,lightyellow
# set selectedcolor lightwhite,magenta

# set spotlightcolor black,orange
# set selectedcolor lightwhite,cyan

## === Syntax coloring ===
## For all details, see 'man nanorc', section SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING.
## To include most of the existing syntax definitions, you can do:
include "/usr/share/nano/*.nanorc"
## Or you can select just the ones you need. For example:
# include "/usr/share/nano/html.nanorc"
# include "/usr/share/nano/python.nanorc"
# include "/usr/share/nano/sh.nanorc"
## In /usr/share/nano/extra/ you can find some syntaxes that are
## specific for certain distros or for some less common languages.
## If <Tab> should always produce four spaces when editing a Python file,
## independent of the settings of 'tabsize' and 'tabstospaces':
# extendsyntax python tabgives " "
## If <Tab> should always produce an actual TAB when editing a Makefile:
# extendsyntax makefile tabgives " "
## === Key bindings ===
## For all details, see 'man nanorc', section REBINDING KEYS.
## If you want to suspend nano with one keystroke (instead of with ^T^Z):
# bind ^Z suspend main
## The <Ctrl+Delete> keystroke deletes the word to the right of the cursor.
## On some terminals the <Ctrl+Backspace> keystroke produces ^H, which is
## the ASCII character for backspace, so it is bound by default to the
## backspace function. The <Backspace> key itself produces a different
## keycode, which is hard-bound to the backspace function. So, if you
## normally use <Backspace> for backspacing and not ^H, you can make
## <Ctrl+Backspace> delete the word to the left of the cursor with:
# bind ^H chopwordleft main
## For a more mnemonic Comment keystroke (overriding Cut-from-cursor):
# bind M-K comment main
## If you want ^L to just refresh the screen and not center the cursor:
# bind ^L refresh main
## When you sometimes type M-J instead of M-K, or M-T instead of M-R:
# unbind M-J main
# unbind M-T main
## (Those functions are still accessible through ^T^J and ^T^V.)
## For quickly uppercasing or lowercasing the word under or after the cursor.
## (These effectively select a word and pipe it through a sed command.)
#bind Sh-M-U "{nextword}{mark}{prevword}{execute}|sed 's/.*/\U&/'{enter}" main
#bind Sh-M-L "{nextword}{mark}{prevword}{execute}|sed 's/.*/\L&/'{enter}" main
## For copying a marked region to the system clipboard:
# bind Sh-M-T "{execute}|xsel -ib{enter}{undo}" main
## For snipping trailing blanks when you save a file:
# bind ^S "{execute}| sed 's/\s\+$//' {enter}{savefile}" main
## If you would like nano to have keybindings that are more "usual",
## such as ^O for Open, ^F for Find, ^H for Help, and ^Q for Quit,
## then uncomment these:
#bind ^X cut main
#bind ^C copy main
#bind ^V paste all
#bind ^Q exit all
#bind ^S savefile main
#bind ^W writeout main
#bind ^O insert main
#set multibuffer
#bind ^H help all
#bind ^H exit help
#bind ^F whereis all
#bind ^G findnext all
#bind ^B wherewas all
#bind ^D findprevious all
#bind ^R replace main
#unbind ^U all
#unbind ^N main
#unbind ^Y all
#unbind M-J main
#unbind M-T main
#bind ^A mark main
#bind ^P location main
#bind ^T gotoline main
#bind ^T gotodir browser
#bind ^T cutrestoffile execute
#bind ^L linter execute
#bind ^E execute main
#bind ^K "{mark}{end}{zap}" main
#bind ^U "{mark}{home}{zap}" main
#bind ^Z undo main
#bind ^Y redo main
