HTML entities in Twitter messages #405

Open ForNeVeR opened 8 years ago

ForNeVeR commented 8 years ago

Consider Twitter user that have written the following in tweet:

λ> nil := (\f . (\x . x))
λ> pair := (\x . (\y . (\z . ((z x) y))))
λ> ((pair 97) ((pair 98) ((pair 99) nil)))
string: abc

For some reason Horta echoed this to MUC in the following form:

<horta hell> @tsoding твитит: λ&gt; nil := (\f . (\x . x))
λ&gt; pair := (\x . (\y . (\z . ((z x) y))))
λ&gt; ((pair 97) ((pair 98) ((pair 99) nil)))
string: abc

I don't think we should replace these > with &gt;.

Morganey as a testing tool for Horta!

Parts of our infrastructure are testing each other. We need to add more to the mix to evolve the perfect machine!

Right. Twitter's probably thinks it's cute to pre-escape html in the tweets. Should be straightforward enough.
