config file not respected #752
Description
Describe the bug
i have my configs saved in the default location of ~/.config/glow/glow.yml, but all of my directives are ignored by glow, in contrast to when it is specify via command arguments (for example, -w/--width instead of width: [...])
Setup
- version:
2.1.0 - system:
"x86_64-linux" - host os:
Linux 6.14.2, NixOS, 25.05 (Warbler), 25.05.20250417.b024ced
Additional context
`glow help`
Render markdown on the CLI, with pizzazz!
Usage:
glow [SOURCE|DIR] [flags]
glow [command]
Available Commands:
completion Generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell
config Edit the glow config file
help Help about any command
Flags:
-a, --all show system files and directories (TUI-mode only)
--config string config file (default /home/usercccp/.config/glow/glow.yml)
-h, --help help for glow
-l, --line-numbers show line numbers (TUI-mode only)
-p, --pager display with pager
-n, --preserve-new-lines preserve newlines in the output
-s, --style string style name or JSON path (default "auto")
-t, --tui display with tui
-v, --version version for glow
-w, --width uint word-wrap at width (set to 0 to disable)
Use "glow [command] --help" for more information about a command.`~/.config/glow/glow.yml`
line-numbers: true
mouse: true
pager: true
width: 0below is an example of how glow behaves without and with passed arguments
`glow TODO.md` or `glow --config ~/.config/glow/glow.yml TODO.md`
