Hide colorcolumn when not needed

[hinell]

I think it would be nice to make hiding colorcolumn configurable. See demo below:

Taken from smartcolumn.nvim

[shellRaining]

good idea, I will take a look

[daUnknownCoder]

good idea, I will take a look

unnecessary if using Bekaboo/deadcolumn.nvim

@daUnknownCoder Have you used it in practice? Wonder if it doesn't conflict with hlchunk. Thanks.

[shellRaining]

hlchunk sets the range of the mark very limited, it should not affect other plugins.

and because this feat will add a new mod, please give me some time to consider how to implement it. Maybe a few weeks... I'm now try my best to improve the performance of existing mods

@shellRaining It's not mandatory to have this feature. Hlchunk is perfect enough and my proposal is just an idea to consider. Best. 😉

[shellRaining]

😄 glad that you like this plugin, I feel that this feature is very good, and I will try to implement a version when I have the need! close temporarily
