v0.18.0

on Rust Cargo

Features

• Use a pager when bat --list-languages is called, see #1394 (@stku1985)

Bugfixes

• If the last line doesn't end with a newline character, don't add it if --style=plain, see #1438 (@Enselic)
• Only print themes hint in interactive mode (bat --list-themes), see #1439 (@rsteube)
• Make ./tests/syntax-tests/regression_test.sh work on recent versions of macOS, see #1443 (@Enselic)
• VimL syntax highlighting fix, see #1450 (@esensar)
• Print an 'Invalid syntax theme settings' error message if a custom theme is broken, see #614 (@Enselic)
• If plain mode is set and wrap is not explicitly opted in, long lines will no be truncated, see #1426
• If PAGER (but not BAT_PAGER or --pager) is more or most, silently use less instead to ensure support for colors, see #1063 (@Enselic)
• If PAGER is bat, silently use less to prevent recursion. For BAT_PAGER or --pager, exit with error, see #1413 (@Enselic)

New themes

• ansi replaces ansi-dark and ansi-light, see #1104 and #1412 (@mk12). Breaking change: users that were previously using one of the ansi-* themes should switch to ansi.
• The Gruvbox theme has been updated, see #1291 (@j0hnmeow). Breaking change: users that were previously using gruvbox or gruvbox-white should update and use gruvbox-dark/gruvbox-light instead.

bat as a library

• The following PrettyPrinter methods have been removed (they were previously deprecated):
  • input_stdin_with_name
  • input_from_bytes_with_name
  • input_from_reader_with_name
  • vcs_modification_markers (if the git feature is not enabled)
