Hi, I am encountering this problem with showdown - the first line is correct, the other two are IMHO incorrect

Input:

This text has a **bold** word.
This text has a ** bold** word.
This text has a **bold ** word.

Expected output:

This text has a <b>bold</b> word.
This text has a <b> bold</b> word.
This text has a <b>bold </b> word.

Actual output:

This text has a <b>bold</b> word.
This text has a ** bold** word.
This text has a **bold ** word.
