Micro 2.0.15 terminal text editor marks a return after a long hiatus, bringing broad syntax enhancements and stability fixes.

Micro, a modern terminal-based text editor designed to be easy to use while still offering features typically associated with full graphical editors, released 2.0.15, marking the project’s first release since version 2.0.14, which shipped in August 2024.

The main focus this time is on improvements to syntax highlighting. Support has been expanded or refined for a wide range of languages and formats, including Rust, Java, Swift, Haskell, OpenSCAD, Meson, PRQL, nftables, Fish shell, Groovy, Ruby, JavaScript variants such as .cjs, and additional assembly and C++ edge cases.
