Description

a flag that can disable the creation of the txt file created after a successful search would be great.

I would love to work on this if approved.

Looks like this was already taken care of in #2263, -- you can use the --no-txt option for it.
Just a heads up though, it’s only available if you install Sherlock directly from GitHub (git clone https://github.com/sherlock-project/sherlock && cd sherlock && pipx install . --force), since version 0.16.0 isn’t out yet

why not make this option default?

Honestly, I have no idea lol. I think it would've been better to ask one of the maintainers

It will become the default shortly. When it was implemented, we decided to not change the default behavior too soon so as to not break any workflows or automations that depend on it. Bit of an adjustment period.

I don't believe this flag is in the latest release but I'll be pushing a minor update shortly that would include it. Just need to fix my dev environment (bad system update, broke things)

--no-txt has been merged in 0.16.0 and will become the default in an upcoming release.

It wasn't made the default for now, as sudden changes like that could break workflows. Somewhere. For somebody. It will become the default in a bit though.
