Make `--unicode`behaviour the standard #42

Closed ClasherKasten closed 2 years ago

ClasherKasten commented 2 years ago

Right now the CLI provides an option named --unicode or -u which uses unicode characters to display the pieces. If the option isn't used, then it falls back to "normal", non-unicode characters. In the process of switching out termcolor to colored We noticed that it is really hard to display a colored board with non-unicode characters.

To fix this, I decided to remove the non-unicode character support and make the --unicode behaviour standard. ToDo:
