***************************************
Improved Nano Syntax Highlighting Files
***************************************
This repository holds ``{lang}.nanorc`` files that have improved
definitions of syntax highlighting for various languages.
These should be placed inside of the ``~/.nano/`` directory.
Alternatively::
git clone git@github.com:scopatz/nanorc.git ~/.nano
*Note - if you have any issues, alternatively use::
git clone https://github.com/scopatz/nanorc.git ~/.nano
Once there you should add the languages you want to your
nano configuration file ``~/.nanorc``. For example::
## C/C++
include "~/.nano/c.nanorc"
You can also append the contents of ``~/.nano/nanorc`` into your
``~/.nanorc`` to include all languages::
cat ~/.nano/nanorc >> ~/.nanorc
Finally, you can run an automatic installer using the following code::
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scopatz/nanorc/master/install.sh | sh
or alternatively::
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scopatz/nanorc/master/install.sh -O- | sh
*Note -
some syntax definitions which exist in Nano upstream may be preferable to the ones provided by this package.
The install.sh script may be run with ``-l`` or ``--lite`` to insert the included syntax definitions from this package
with lower precedence than the ones provided by the standard package.
