patch 9.0.1827: xxd: no color support
Problem: xxd: no color support
Solution: Add color support using xxd -R
Add some basic color support for xxd
The hex-value and value are both colored with the same color depending
on the hex-value, e.g.:
0x00 = white
0xff = blue
printable = green
non-printable = red
tabs and linebreaks = yellow
Each character needs 11 more bytes to contain color. (Same color in a
row could contain only one overhead but the logic how xxd creates colums
must be then changed.) Size of colored output is increased by factor of
~6. Also grepping the output will break when colors is used.
Flag for color is "-R", because less uses "-R".
Color uses parameters auto,always,never same as less and grep (among
others).
E.g.
xxd -R always $FILE | less -R
Add some screen-tests (that currently on work on linux) to verify the
feature works as expected.

*pi_gzip.txt* For Vim version 9.0. Last change: 2019 May 05 VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Bram Moolenaar Editing compressed files with Vim *gzip* *bzip2* *compress* 1. Autocommands |gzip-autocmd| The functionality mentioned here is a |standard-plugin|. This plugin is only available if 'compatible' is not set. You can avoid loading this plugin by setting the "loaded_gzip" variable: > :let loaded_gzip = 1 ============================================================================== 1. Autocommands *gzip-autocmd* The plugin installs autocommands to intercept reading and writing of files with these extensions: extension compression ~ *.Z compress (Lempel-Ziv) *.gz gzip *.bz2 bzip2 *.lzma lzma *.xz xz *.lz lzip *.zst zstd That's actually the only thing you need to know. There are no options. After decompressing a file, the filetype will be detected again. This will make a file like "foo.c.gz" get the "c" filetype. If you have 'patchmode' set, it will be appended after the extension for compression. Thus editing the patchmode file will not give you the automatic decompression. You have to rename the file if you want this. ============================================================================== vim:tw=78:ts=8:noet:ft=help:norl:
