feature request: batgrep support for ripgrep's --hyperlink-format

[llimllib]

I made an attempt:

diff --git a/src/batgrep.sh b/src/batgrep.sh
index 1f02138..e521abe 100755
--- a/src/batgrep.sh
+++ b/src/batgrep.sh
@@ -247,6 +247,11 @@ while shiftopt; do
 		RG_ARGS+=("$OPT" "$OPT_VAL")
 		;;
 
+	--hyperlink-format*)
+		RG_ARGS+=("$OPT=$OPT_VAL")
+		;;

 	# bat options
 
 	# Script options

But the hyperlinks don't come through like I was hoping, and I got pretty stumped trying to figure out why.

clicking on a hyperlink to open the file at the spot where the match is is one of my favorite features of ripgrep, and I'd love to use it with batgrep.

This would have to be something implemented on bat's end, unfortunately.

The main issue is that while bat can parse and re-emit hyperlinks correctly, it can't correctly perform syntax highlighting against source code with embedded escape sequences.

I would also need to update batgrep to read the escape sequences, and that would be both slow and not very practical.

That being said... If you want to open a feature request for adding hyperlinks to line numbers on bat's end, I could try implementing that at some point when I have free time.

There is an issue on bat already: sharkdp/bat#2158

(Sorry, I should have linked that one to this one)
