Pango warning when an ampersand (&) sign is displayed. #2

Open ghost opened 11 years ago

ghost commented 11 years ago

I went to a website with an ampersand in the page title, so that became the title of the window. That gave me a couple hundred of these

Pango-WARNING **: pango_layout_set_markup_with_accel: Error on line 1: Entity did not end with a semicolon; most likely you used an ampersand character without intending to start an entity - escape ampersand as &

This is reproducible. Any ampersand in the dwm bar (for example in a tag name) that isn't written as & will yield strange results and spawn this error.

The original author of this approach to Pango markup has stated the same issue. You can safely ignore those, and I currently do not know of any way to fix this.

Still stuck with this. Used & instead of & and still Pango gives the error rolf1304 pasted.

As I said, it's harmless. I'm not the original author of this patch, nor do I use it anymore.

use "& amp;amp; " replace "&" notice remove the blank
