[BUG] extraneous newline added with rich.syntax module

[ericfrederich]

• [x] I've checked docs and closed issues for possible solutions.
• [x] I can't find my issue in the FAQ.

Describe the bug

While running rich.syntax as a module a new line is added on each invocation.

Provide a minimal code example that demonstrates the issue if you can. If the issue is visual in nature, consider posting a screenshot.

I use an alias of alias hili='python -m rich.syntax -b default'. It always adds a newline. Subsequent invocations of this do as well.

When running through xxd you can see it adding newlines (0x0A) characters. Ideally when running through a pipe nothing should be modified.

Rich syntax doesn't just apply highlighting to a stream of text. It changes tabs to spaces, wraps or truncates lines. It can add line numbers, indentation guides etc. i.e. it makes no guarantee that all it will do is add color.
