You are right.On Thu, Oct 29, 2015, at 20:48, Matthew Hebley wrote:I (believe I) compiled it from nano-3.4.1.tar.gz.2.4.1, you mean. :)
Think I upgraded to get colours (syntax formatting) working. They do work, except for the background.Can't remember the reason I upgraded. Maybe I should try 2.4.2, or try to revert to the original Apple version.Trying to revert to the original Apple version is the first thing I would try. Then you'll maybe remember why you upgraded. :) The original version is maybe even still there. Type 'type -a nano' and see what it says. If you have three nanos, and the first is /usr/local/bin/nano, then the other two are most likely the originally installed version.
I was OK to use it as is (with a black background), but viewing iOS file (*.m) uses a dark font (e.g. for the include file name). So I wanted to fix/change the background. However, switching from the shell background appears to be a bug rather than a setting.

GNU nano version 2.0.6 (compiled 16:25:25, Sep 9 2014)
Email: address@hidden Web: http://www.nano-editor.org/
Compiled options: --disable-nls --enable-color --enable-extra --enable-multibuffer --enable-nanorc --enable-utf8
Version 2.0.6 (from Apple) works as expected, except for a bunch of errors reading the rc files (that I have installed for syntax formatting).
Error in /usr/local/share/nano/sh.nanorc on line 4: Command "header" not understood
Error in /usr/local/share/nano/sh.nanorc on line 5: Command "magic" not understood
Error in /usr/local/share/nano/sh.nanorc on line 6: Command "linter" not understood
Press Enter to continue starting nano.
Version 2.3.2, 2.3.3, and 2.4.2 all behave the same as 2.4.1 (black background).If the original version behaves the way you want, backgroundwise, then compile and run 2.3.2 and 2.3.3, and see how each of those behaves. (You don't have to install them; you can run them in their source tree with 'src/nano'.) Then please report back.

Blue.What is your default background colour for the terminal?
I will use 2.2.6 and try to figure out how to get rid of the warnings. Thank you for your assistance.
