Ranger unable to preview a text file #2725

Closed fromtheeast710 closed 1 year ago

fromtheeast710 commented 1 year ago

For some reason Ranger can't preview this text file taken from here evil_lualine 2022-10-27-140905_1366x768_scrot

compare to this file 2022-10-27-140914_1366x768_scrot

You need to add some more info such as:

  1. Which version of ranger are you using.
  2. Which distro and what version. I have fedora 35 and ranger version 1.9.3 and it works perfectly fine
fromtheeast710 commented 1 year ago

@tuatara73 I'm using Ranger ranger 1.9.3 with Python version: 3.10.8 on ArtixLinux 6.0.6.artix1-1.

It's weird that only one file is affected by this. I tried removing the config file but nothing changed.

There are control (^) codes in the file, w/ them stripped out it previews fine; lines 100 and 106.

That worked, thank you. But is there any workaround for this bug that does not require removing those characters?

This is probably caused by whatever syntax highlighting program is processing it. Which of highlight, bat or pygments do you have installed? (Or did, since it's a while ago .)
