colorizing is worse than non-colored about coccigrep HOT 6 OPEN

Just pushed a branch adding the -g option like --grep: https://github.com/regit/coccigrep/tree/grep

It gives the following result:

Can you give it a try ? (sudo python setup.py install from the branch should do the trick)

Thanks! This is much better. I think additional option is not needed, just show output in this mode if context is 0 lines. Also, pls, highlight -a argument (which is a_entries in our example) in red, while remain highlighting acl in green (this is useful).

Additional thought: if you choose rule to highlight both -t and -a (better in different colors but not necessarily), in that case text (struct posix_acl *acl) is not needed, as we always would see acl (as different from -a string) and understand it's type match. Thus a lot of screen output could be saved from clobbering with similar text. This would warrant -g option if you don't want to change default formatting.

ps. (Not too important feature requests.) If you want to make it more similar to gnu grep - line numbers not needed by default, in grep they are enabled with -n option. And in addition to -C n grep allows shortcut -n.

Just pushed that to master:

@do11 Could you test it ?

from coccigrep.

It works nice. Thanks much!

ps. Ah. Except, in just -t mode, when symbol is already highlighted its second entry on the line is not highlighted.

Good catch.
