System information

Alpine on WSL on Windows 10

Add the output of "ptg --version" in this box.

Possible cause If you have a hunch on what might be causing this, please add it here.

Seems like something to do with the dataclass meaning that RegexHighlighter doesn't get an init ?

Possible solution If you know a way we could fix this, please add it here.

I don't know much about dataclasses but maybe this link is relevant

Could you show me the output of ptg -v?

I didn't mean to close this yet. Could you try cloning the latest commit and installing using pip install .? I think it should work now.

Odd that this problem never seemed to come up anywhere else. Thank you for the report!
