ENH: add spaces between genes rather than every 5 mutations #17

Alternative spacing between genes would be great so one can remember gene boundaries

lenaschimmel commented 2 years ago

Yes, sounds like a good option if gene boundaries are important to you. I think to other users, other aspects might be equally or more important, e.g. boundaries of specific amplicons, etc. So I'd like to find a general solution that can be configured to those needs.

Also, I'm not happy with using spacing as the only way for vertical visual guiding. I will experiment with using colored background, but with low-contrast, unintrusive colors. For this to work, I will need 8bit or 24bit color support, and this will need a replacement for the outdated 4bit termcolor lib and a lot of testing, and also fallbacks for terminals that only support 4bit colors.
