Feature request:
Meta-T - toggle -t / --tempfile command line option
or
At the write file prompt, allow a control key to exit
without saving, e.g. ^X or ^Y.
The goal is to make it easier to exit a 'nano -t' session without saving, e.g.
as I often need to do when I press ^X and suddenly get a write file prompt
because I'm not a user with permission to edit the file given on the command
line. (I realize I could tell nano at that point to write to /dev/null, but it
would be better to have a key combo that would exit without saving.)
This was asked about by someone in 2004, as well:
