Less 581.2 is here, and it has a ".2" in the version string, which can't
be parsed as a usize.
Update the check to find a non-digit character rather than a space. This
ignores the minor version, but parses the major version correctly.
Do not ignore `BAT_CONFIG_PATH` if it doesn't exist. Both when
generating a new config file with `--generate-config-file` and
when attempting to read the config.
Also, provide a better error message in case the file can not
be created.

The change in `create_highlighted_versions.py` fixes a "unknown theme
"'1337'" warning. The single quotes were wrong. `bat` was always falling
back to the default theme, so let's use that for now.
Fixed by implementing the proposal by sharkdp:
* Allow PAGER=bat, but ignore the setting in bat and simply default to
less. Unless of course, BAT_PAGER or --pager is used to overwrite the
value of PAGER.
* Disallow the usage of bat within BAT_PAGER and --pager.
This will fix#614 by making it clear what is wrong by showing the
following error message:
Failed to load one or more themes from
'/Users/me/.config/bat/themes' (reason: 'Invalid syntax theme
settings')
We also need to add a check if theme_dir.exists(), otherwise an absent
dir will seem like an error:
Failed to load one or more themes from
'/Users/me/.config/bat/themes' (reason: 'IO error for
operation on /Users/me/.config/bat/themes: No such file or
directory (os error 2)')
(This is the same check we already have for syntax_dir.)
To trigger/verify the changed code, run
bat --list-languages # or -L
This is the last clippy warning in the code that you get if you run
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- --allow clippy::style
so by fixing it it becomes easier to spot when a new warning is
introduced (that does not belong to the clippy category clippy::style).
And by making it easy to spot new warnings, we increase chance of such
regressions not ending up in the code base.
This macro is intended to be package-internal and is not to be
considered part of the public lib API.
Use it in three places to reduce code duplication. However, main reason
for this refactoring is to allow us to fix#1063 without duplicating the
code yet another time.
The macro can also be used for the "Binary content from {} will not be
printed to the terminal" message if that message starts to use eprintln!
instead (if ever).
To trigger/verify the changed code, the following commands can be used:
cargo run -- --theme=ansi-light tests/examples/single-line.txt
cargo run -- --theme=does-not-exist tests/examples/single-line.txt
cargo run -- --style=grid,rule tests/examples/single-line.txt
This combines ansi-light and ansi-dark into a single theme that works
with both light and dark backgrounds. Instead of specifying white/black,
the ansi theme uses the terminal's default foreground/background color
by setting alpha=01, i.e. #00000001. This is in addition to the alpha=00
encoding where red contains an ANSI color palette number.
Now, `--theme ansi-light` and `--theme ansi-dark` will print a
deprecation notice and use ansi instead (unless the user has a custom
theme named ansi-light or ansi-dark, which would take precedence).
This fixes#1438.
Note however, that using a pager such as less will add a newline itself.
So to actually not print a newline for such files, you need to either
disable paging:
bat --style=plain --paging=never no-newline-at-end-of-file.txt
or use a "pager" that does not add a newline:
bat --style=plain --pager=cat no-newline-at-end-of-file.txt
Note that we also update syntax tests file since a bunch of them had
missing newlines on the last lines.
Since it has a functional role, we can not just replace it, we must keep
it around. This also allows us to simplify the code slightly.
We must fix this before we fix#1438 since otherwise the \n will be
missing with --style=plain, since we will stop adding it if it is
missing.
As mentioned on #1334 `bat` should not be used as a value for `pager`,
this change checks both the balue of `bat` provided as a parameter or
as an environment variable.
Prevent less from wrapping lines by setting the proper flag when `--wrap=never`.
If the user set a custom value for `--pager`, no additional flag is set.
Bat already has a base16 theme. The new base16-256 theme is for users
of base16-shell, who configure their terminal with a 256-color variant
of a base16 theme. These variants put some of the base16 colors in
elsewhere in the 256-color table to avoid clobbering bright color slots
(ansi codes 8 to 15) with colors that don't respect the ordinary meaning
of that slot (e.g. bright green in ordinary base16 is not green).

## [why]
For 'windows' platforms, directly spawning a process (eg, called PATHNAME) bypasses the
usual windows shell machinery for determining which process to execute. Specifically,
the extensions in PATHEXT will not be used to determine the final executable. So,
`PATHNAME.bat`, `PATHNAME.cmd`, ... will *not* be executed even if on they exist on the
PATH; and this is counter to the usual expectation of a Windows user. Additionally,
built-in commands, such as `echo` and `dir`, will never be accessible as they do not
have a PATH to execute and, so, will never be found.
To use the usual machinery, giving access to PATHNAME.bat and `echo`, execute the PATHNAME
using the windows shell, eg `cmd /d/c PATHNAME`. Note this may expose the constructed
command line to the windows shell quoting vagaries (sadly, that may be part of the price).
Following Windows standards, the ComSpec environment variable is used to determine which
shell to use, with a fallback to the "modern", built-in `cmd` shell.
This changes the base16 theme back from #RRGGBB0f to #RRGGBB00,
reverting part of #934. That PR used the 0f encoding to produce ANSI
escape sequences 30-37 and 40-47 rather than 38;5 and 48;5 which require
256-color support. Unfortunately, it resulted in base16 using the wrong
colors becuase ansi_term does not support the bright variants (90-97 and
100-107) so it simply mapped them to the non-bright colors.
This PR makes combines the 00 and 0f alpha encodings into 00, and makes
them use the Color enum for the first 8 colors and Fixed otherwise. This
means the ansi-light and ansi-dark themes will work on terminals without
256-color support, and base16 will render bright colors correctly.
This adds a new `--diff` option that can be used to only show lines
close to Git changes (added/removed/modified lines). The amount of
additional context can be controlled with `--diff-context=N`.

We used to call `less` with
``` bash
less --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS --quit-if-one-screen --no-init
```
We only passed `--no-init` because there was a bug with previous versions
of `less` which required the use of `--no-init` in combination with
`--quit-if-one-screen` to prevent this "no output" issue from happening.
Since bat 0.13, [we omit the `--no-init` option](0ecc94956b/src/output.rs (L85-L97))
if we can detect that the version of `less` is higher than or equal to 530. We
did that because `--no-init` breaks mouse support and because [less 530 fixed
the above-mentioned bug](http://www.greenwoodsoftware.com/less/news.530.html).
However, it seems that this bug was *not* fixed on Windows!
According to @gwsw, the issue should be fixed with less 559 on Windows.

When saving/reading user-provided syntaxes or themes, `bat` will now maintain a
`metadata.yaml` file which includes information about the `bat` version which was
used to create the cached files. When loading cached files, we now print an error
if they have been created with an incompatible version
closes#882
When using `less` version 551 or newer, `bat` will now pass the `--mouse` argument, allowing
for (better) mouse scrolling support in some terminals.
