# Description
This PR adds a new config item, `error_style`. It will render errors in
a screen reader friendly mode when set to `"simple"`. This is done using
`miette`'s own `NarratableReportHandler`, which seamlessly replaces the
default one when needed.
Before:
```
Error: nu:🐚:external_command
× External command failed
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ doesnt exist
· ───┬──
· ╰── executable was not found
╰────
help: No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
After:
```
Error: External command failed
Diagnostic severity: error
Begin snippet for entry #4 starting at line 1, column 1
snippet line 1: doesnt exist
label at line 1, columns 1 to 6: executable was not found
diagnostic help: No such file or directory (os error 2)
diagnostic code: nu:🐚:external_command
```
## Things to be determined
- ~Review naming. `errors.style` is not _that_ consistent with the rest
of the code. Menus use a `style` record, but table rendering mode is set
via `mode`.~ As it's a single config, we're using `error_style` for now.
- Should this kind of setting be toggable with one single parameter?
`accessibility.no_decorations` or similar, which would adjust the style
of both errors and tables accordingly.
# User-Facing Changes
No changes by default, errors will be rendered differently if
`error_style` is set to `simple`.
# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
