is released.

2005.10.23 - GNU nano 1.3.9 breaks through the wall.  This release
       includes major enhancements as well as bugfixes.  The
       enhancements include better handling of invalid UTF-8,
       expansion of the word count option to also count lines
       and characters in the file or selection, more efficient
       screen update routines, a readded -K/--rebindkeypad
       option to work around numeric keypad problems on
       terminals that don't show the usual NumLock glitch, a
       new -W/--wordbounds option to properly detect words
       containing punctuation when moving among them, and
       massive improvements to the color code such as handling
       of unspecified foreground colors, more efficient memory
       usage for color regexes, and new reserved syntaxes
       "default" and "none".  The bugfixes include fixes for
       the rewritten history code, fixes for potential line
       numbering problems on 64-bit platforms, fixes for a few
       long-standing minor display problems, a fix for erroneous
       hangups occurring while waiting for input, and a fix for
       a segfault when displaying certain overly long lines.
       Have fun with it.
