+        Older tool output used `f"{line_num:6d}\t{line}"` — a 6-wide
+        right-justified number plus a tab — so even single-digit line numbers
+        carried five leading spaces and the tab pushed content to a distant tab
+        stop. The TUI renders that legacy gutter in the newer compact shape:
+        numbers right-justified to the widest number actually present, then two
+        spaces, mirroring how grep/glob results sit flush left. Source
+        indentation after the gutter is preserved untouched.
+
+        Lines that don't match the legacy cat-n shape (e.g. current compact
+        read output, test fixtures, or non-numbered output) are passed through
+        unchanged.

             The output with compacted gutters, or the original string if no
