macos - How do I configure the insert file target in nano?

The GNU nano text editor has the ability to insert another file into the current file (^R). The behaviour of this command can be modified to insert the file into a new buffer with M-F.


I would like the default behaviour of ^R to be inserting the file into a new buffer. I have somehow accomplished this on several computers that I use, however I am unable to accomplish this on Mac OS X Mavericks with GNU nano 2.2.6 (latest stable version) installed via Homebrew.


Is there any nano configuration option to set this behaviour?
