breakage of highlighting and `markdown-hide-urls`

[VladimirAlexiev]

I use poly-gfm-mode with highlighting and markdown-hide-urls in order not to see bare URLs but only link names.

In poly-gfm-mode , the highlighting often breaks and links show bare, eg this:

or this: The breakage goes for some sentences or paragraphs until it hits a significantly different markup, eg a table or new heading.

This is a transient error. On reload it often but not always disappears. And it may reappear in another spot.

I also notice that font-lock-mode has no effect in poly-gfm-mode: the highlighting always stays. and poly-lock-mode is not interactive?

Please let me know how I can help you diagnose this!

The breakage happens very often. Eg on the shot below:

• the lang name markers should be in bold (minor)
• the text should be in black not brown

Control-X N fixes the highlighting in the visible screen, but if I jump to another part of the file, there is still breakage. The breakage disappears after a while on its own.

Hi @vspinu ! I think this is a major show-stopper that precludes the use of poly-markdown. Are you still maintaining this module? How can I help with diagnosing the problem?

Unfortunately I can no longer develop at this moment for personal reasons. I no longer even use emacs. Feel free to hack on your own. If there is interest in continuing maintaining polymode I would be more than happy to provide people with write access to the repos.
