Add --no-unicode flag to disable combining marks in output#105
Conversation
This commit adds a new command-line flag `--no-unicode` that allows users to disable Unicode combining marks (strikethrough and underline characters) in the diff output while preserving ANSI color highlighting. This addresses the issue where the dual formatting (colors + unicode marks) creates difficulties when converting output to HTML and LaTeX formats. The implementation: - Adds `--no-unicode` flag to the argument parser in __main__.py - Passes the `enable_unicode` parameter to the Printer constructor - Sets the `CombiningMarkWriter.enabled` property based on user preference When `--no-unicode` is specified, only ANSI colors are used to highlight additions (green) and deletions (red), making the output easier to process downstream while maintaining visual differentiation.

This PR doesn't seem to disable combining markers in unicode output, it disables all output, if I am reading the code changes correctly. I need to test it a bit more to confirm. |
