How to use stdin?

[billksun]

I am trying to call out to sic from my program, feeding the image to sic via stdin. However, I keep getting the following error message:

Error: Unable select input/output mode: mode should either be simple xor glob

Inferring from the help message, I am assuming that when no --input or --glob-input is provided, sic will read from stdin, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

You are correct; this seems to be a bug, I've created a PR which should resolve this in #1400.

Thanks for the report!

In this ascii cast I recorded an example of it working again: https://asciinema.org/a/3RXgxHh9N0JQPu4e0DpJ7VorV

NB: My linux test machine didn't have a gui attached, so I used chafa to preview the images from within the terminal. The recording itself doesn't seem to accept everything shown in the terminal, which is why the image previews (and terminal powerline) show some artifacts, beyond the inherent limitations of chafa.

edit: this is what it looks like for me:

Thanks once again for the report!

I've released https://github.com/foresterre/sic/releases/tag/v0.21.1 which should fix this issue.
