Spaces can break colorization #14

Closed cfjedimaster closed 7 years ago

Check out how the color 'breaks' at the space in "My Space":

I'm assuming that's not supposed to happen?

This is a tough one to fix. How do you tell the difference between spaces in a regular sentence that contains an email address? Unfortunately I'm not sure the general purpose nature of this extension can fix that particular use case.

cfjedimaster commented 7 years ago

Based on what you told me (that it has to be a regex, and not 'logic'), I agree this would be too difficult to fix. Close if you want. :)

Yup, it's all based on general purpose regex. I don't think there is much I can do for this one without breaking a lot of other things or making it extremely complicated (and probably fragile). I will see if I can improve regex in general.
