I am in 16.66 b5

Warping long list items
Loosing color after warp
1. List with a very long line that will need to warp to see it the syntax highlighter can handle this very long line when the line will warp in the editor.
Warping links with long alternate text
Loosing color after warp
Text [RJ TextEd](https://www.example-link.somewhere/somesite.ext#anchor "with a long descriptionthat will need some line warping to check if the highlighter will work properly with long lines").
Links with <..> format produce quotes

Code: Select all

[5]: <https://www.example-link.somewhere/> "Alternate text"
[6]: <https://www.example-link.somewhere/> 'Alternate text'
[7]: <https://www.example-link.somewhere/> (Alternate text)
Such stuff is also problematic because they do not use a space before the formatting

Code: Select all

String with bo_**ld ital**_ic in it.

String with bo*__ld ital__*ic in it.

String with bo**_ld ital_**ic in it.

String with bo__*ld ital*__ic in it.
Lists with code are also problematic while they work in the sideview, it seems as if the highlighter does not know it also hanging paragraphs in lists are problematic

in general long lines when warped seem to have highlight problems similar to the already fixed blockquotes.

Code: Select all

1. Code in list
        code indent by 8 spaces

Code: Select all

1. List with codeblock
    ```python
    print("hi")
    ```

Code: Select all

* Here's the second list item.

    I need to add another paragraph below the second list item.
Super long lines in HTML comments which are OK in markdown also can go crazy wen they warp
But there is some thing more odd with html comments
some times also short lines loose the color or change it irrational, i dont know why, sometimes they do and some times they dont

Hey ... thanks for looking into all that MD stuff :-D

In Markdown, warped lines do loose highlight when formatted as Bold.
Same happens with Italic, Strike, Highlight and similar formattings.
It happens as soon a line-warp occurs in a formatted string (not hard line-break).
