## 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 characters specially
## interpreted by the shell should not be escaped here.
##
## To make sure a value is not enabled, use "unset <option>"
##
## For the options that take parameters, the default value is given.
## Other options are unset by default.
## Use auto-indentation.
set autoindent
## Backup files to filename~.
# set backup
## The directory to put the backup files in.
# set backupdir ""
## The characters treated as closing brackets. They cannot contain tabs
## or spaces. Only closing punctuation, optionally followed by closing
## brackets, can end sentences.
##
# set brackets "'")}]>"
## Constantly display the cursor position in the status bar.
# 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 negative, 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
## Use the blank line below the titlebar as extra editing space.
set morespace
## Enable mouse support, so that mouse clicks can be used to set the
## mark and run shortcuts.
unset mouse
## Allow multiple file buffers (inserting a file will put it into a
## separate buffer). You must have configured with --enable-multibuffer
## or --enable-extra 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 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 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. They cannot contain
## tabs or spaces. Only closing punctuation, optionally followed by
## closing brackets, can end sentences.
##
# set punct ".?!"
## 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 regexps, otherwise:
set quotestr "> "
## You can get old nano quoted-justify behavior via:
# set quotestr "(> )+"
## Fix Backspace/Delete confusion problem.
set rebinddelete
## 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 6
## Save automatically on exit, don't prompt.
# set tempfile
## Disallow file modification; why would you want this in an rcfile? ;)
# set view
## The two characters used to display the first characters of tabs and
## spaces. 187 decimal (00BB hexadecimal) and 183 decimal (00B7
## hexadecimal) seem to be good values for these.
# set whitespace " "
## Color setup
## Format:
## syntax "short description" ["filename regex" ...]
## color foreground,background "regex" ["regex"...]
##
## Legal colors: white, black, red, blue, green, yellow, magenta, cyan.
## You may use the prefix "bright" to mean a stronger color highlight.
##
## To use multi-line regexes use the 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.
##
syntax "c-file" "\.(c|h)$"
color red "\<[A-Z_]{2,}\>"
color green "\<(float|double|char|int|short|long|enum|void|static|const|struct|union|typedef|extern|signed|unsigned|inline)\>"

## You will in general want your comments and strings to come last,
## because syntax highlighting rules will be applied in the order they
## are read in.
