Nice work!  For maximum benefit, could you do two things:

1) Make this a unified diff (with "diff -u")
2) Attach the patch rather than including it inline.

I'll fix cygport.nanorc in cygport accordingly; I hope the nano
maintainer will consider including this patch in a new release as well.

Thanks!
