Too strict on code backticks

Reported by: paul@… Owned by: deveiant
Milestone: Old Bugfixes Component: API
Version: 1.0.0fc2 Severity: normal
Keywords: backtick span exception Cc:

Description (last modified by deveiant) (diff)

I don't think BlueCloth should throw an exception if the backtick-style code spans aren't properly terminated (line 918 of lib/bluecloth.rb): Gruber's original doesn't. In fact, BC#to_html should always return HTML, because Gruber didn't define a syntax that must be followed. Remember,  Markdown is a *writing* format, not a *publishing* format.

Any progress on resolving this?

comment:3 Changed 6 years ago by deveiant

None yet. I've started a new job which should free up much more time to work on my Ruby projects again, so I'm hoping to revisit Bluecloth and get a new release out. This will be one of the things I'll address ASAP.

Closing all BlueCloth 1 tickets. All known defects should be fixed by 2.0. Let me know if I've missed one.
