## === 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 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
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 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 ^Q exit all
