Extra space is inserted on links, now on `<li>` items (see also #147)

[EuAndreh]

I found a similar issue to #147 with links inside a <li>...</li> tag.

Sample interactive session:

$ pushd `mktemp -d`
/tmp/tmp.eumfknLzp8 ~/dev/libre/git-permalink
$ cat <<EOF > sample.md
> [paragraph link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-and-big-url-name-on-it)
>
> - [list item link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-and-big-url-name-on-it)
> EOF
$ md2po sample.md --po-filepath l.po --save

$ po2md sample.md --pofiles l.po --save sample.l.md

The generated pofile is equivalent, but reconstruction of it into the markdown that seems to be failing. I'm don't think this is intentational, so I came here to report back the issue.

I've only now encountered it, after using mdpo a bit more, with the equivalent <p>...</p> issue fixed.

I'm not yet entirely sure how you prefer to handle these, and if you're OK with me showing up every once in a while to point out a problem, and maybe try to write the code to address it.

If so, I'm happy to keep doing it. Otherwise, I'm also open to alternatives that suit you better.

Thank you for the report. Any problem, keep reporting its really useful 👍🏼

[mondeja]

Fixed in v0.3.63.

Thanks!

Hmm, a different issue came up, and it may be related: an extra <li> is added after the link when a - something is present.

Sample interactive session:

$ pushd `mktemp -d`
/tmp/tmp.BAOuydpVAf ~
$ echo '- [list item link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-and-big-url-name-on-it) - 2021-07-16' > sample.md
$ md2po sample.md --po-filepath l.po --save
#
msgid ""
msgstr ""

#: sample.md:block 1 (unordered list)
msgid ""
"[list item link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-"
"and-big-url-name-on-it) - 2021-07-16"
msgstr ""

$ po2md sample.md --pofiles l.po --save sample.l.md
$ cat sample.l.md
- [list item link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-and-big-url-name-on-it)
- 2021-07-16
$ md2po --version
.md2po-real 0.3.63
$

Extracted steps to reproduce:

pushd `mktemp -d`
echo '- [list item link name](https://example.com/a-big-link-with-a-very-very-long-and-big-url-name-on-it) - 2021-07-16' > sample.md
md2po sample.md --po-filepath l.po --save
po2md sample.md --pofiles l.po --save sample.l.md
cat sample.l.md
md2po --version

The generated pofile looks fine, the generation of the markdown that looks to be the issue.

[EuAndreh]

Should we file a new issue?

[mondeja]

Is not an issue, it is the expected behaviour. Is parsed as a list with one item, but the wrapping moves - 2021-07-16 to a new line. Could you check with --wrapwidth 999? You should see it in one line.

[EuAndreh]

Indeed, --wrapwidth 999 worked. Thanks again.
