util: change inspect compact default by BridgeAR · Pull Request #27109 · nodejs/node (original) (raw)

This changes the compact default to 3 and the breakLength default to 80.

I recently worked a lot on this mode and believe it is much better readability wise than the old formatting while keeping the information compact as before (or even more). It has a couple of nice features for different input to improve readability. I outline most differences in the individual commit message.

No matter if this lands or not, I suggest to give this a try to have a better understanding of the changed "look and feel".
