[Nano-devel] optional unicode (ncursesw) support

[Mike Frysinger]

might i suggest an additional configure option to control linking of nano 
against ncurses versus ncursesw ?

i'm thinking if there was say --{dis,en}able-utf8 (or maybe call it 'unicode' 
instead of 'utf8'), that'd work fine :)

expected behavior:
if neither --disable-utf8 or --enable-utf8 was passed, then current behavior 
of searching for ncursesw then ncurses would be retained ...
if the user passed --enable-utf8 though, the configure script would bail if 
ncursesw was not detected ...
if the user passed --disable-utf8, ncursesw would not be checked even if it 
was on the system ...

if this tweak is acceptable, i can send a patch for configure.ac if you want
