## === 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 the cursor. |
|
|
## (These effectively do a Ctrl+Right followed by a Shift+Ctrl+Left, |
|
|
## and then pipe the selected text through a sed command.) |
|
|
# bind Sh-M-U "Oc[1;6D|sed 's/.*/\U&/' |
|
|
" main |
|
|
# bind Sh-M-L "Oc[1;6D|sed 's/.*/\L&/' |
|
|
" 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 |
|
|
#bind ^S savefile main |
|
|
#bind ^W writeout main |
|
|
#bind ^O insert main |
|
|
#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 |
|
|
#bind ^X cut main |
|
|
#bind ^C copy main |
|
|
#bind ^V paste all |
|
|
#bind ^P location main |
|
|
#bind ^E execute main |
|
|
#bind ^A mark main |
|
|
#unbind ^K main |
|
|
#unbind ^U all |
|
|
#unbind ^N main |
|
|
#unbind ^Y all |
|
|
#unbind M-J main |
|
|
#unbind M-T main |
|
|
#bind ^T gotoline main |
|
|
#bind ^T gotodir browser |
|
|
#bind ^T cutrestoffile execute |
|
|
#bind ^L linter execute |
|
|
#bind M-U undo main |
|
|
#bind M-R redo main |
|
|
#bind ^Z undo main |
|
|
#bind ^Y redo main |
