AI Summary

This release adds a `--padding` argument to various CLI commands, allowing users to control spacing in terminal output similar to CSS padding values.

Key Highlights

Added `--padding` argument to commands: choose, confirm, file, filter, input, pager, spin, style, table, and write.
Padding accepts CSS-like values: one value applies to all sides, two values apply vertically and horizontally, and four values apply to top, right, bottom, and left respectively.
Special thanks to contributors for the rapid implementation.

New Features

CSS-style padding support for CLI commands

Full Release Notes

# Pad Everything

This is a small feature release that adds `--padding` to as many commands as possible. For example:

<p><img width="875" height="376" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/88d7ec90-296c-478a-ac31-f652184798f7" /></p>

Padding arguments work similarly to CSS values:

* With one value, padding applies to all sides (`--padding="4"`)
* With two values, padding applies vertically and horizontally, respectively (`--padding="4 10"`)
* With four values, padding applies top, right, bottom, and left, respectively (`--padding="4 10"`)

Which commands can be padded? These:

* `choose`
* `confirm`
* `file`
* `filter`
* `input`
* `pager`
* `spin`
* `style`
* `table`
* `write`

Special thanks to @caarlos0 for banging this one out in record time, for none other than @dhh. 💎

<summary>Verifying the artifacts</summary>

First, download the [`checksums.txt` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v0.17.0/checksums.txt), for example, with `wget`:

```bash
wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v0.17.0/checksums.txt'
```

Then, verify it using [`cosign`](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign):

```bash
cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/meta/.github/workflows/goreleaser.yml@refs/heads/main' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --cert 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v0.17.0/checksums.txt.pem' \
  --signature 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v0.17.0/checksums.txt.sig' \
  ./checksums.txt
```

If the output is `Verified OK`, you can safely use it to verify the checksums of other artifacts you downloaded from the release using `sha256sum`:

```bash
sha256sum --ignore-missing -c checksums.txt
```

Done! You artifacts are now verified!
