[Python-markdown-discuss] python markdown line breaks with 80-char wrapped text don't make sense with hanging paragraphs

[alec r. <al...@sp...>]

Hi!  I recently ran into this problem while using the
django.contrib.markup addon, and it turns out that the issue (I think)
is with Python Markdown.

With the original text of:
"""
- *bench space* :: Our [space](http://sproutward.org/greenhouse) and
  [equipment]() are available for use by individuals and groups. If
  you or your friends (or your research partners or your classmates or
  your children) want to figure out a way to make a project of yours
  happen at sprout--[let's see how we can make it
  happen](mailto:sp...@sp...).
"""
python markdown inserts a line break after the first and, instead of
where the line break would make sense, in this case.  Dingus
(http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus) does not have
this issue.  Refer to the bug listing at django (
http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/10685 ) for details, or let me
know if I should refile a separate bug report through this mailing
list.

Thanks!

Does this cause any problems?

Yep, on a webpage, it's inserted as a hard break.  If you have a link
on the first line of an item, for example, the line breaks much
earlier than you anticipate (since the 80 char wrapping includes the
URI text).  Ideally, I'd like the output to be that of Dingus (that
is, without the line breaks)

Hi Alec. Thanks for the report. I'm assuming your using
Python-Markdown 1.7. However, this bug has already been fixed and will
be available in the next release (2.0) which will most likely be
available on Monday. Yes, this coming Monday, April 6. If I have the
time, it might even come on Sunday night. Watch this list for the
announcement or at http://twitter.com/WaylanL

For the record, I broke your example down into the simplest broken test case:

    - A list item [with]()
      [hanging]() indent.

See here for a comparison:

http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/?markdown=-+A+list+item+[with]()%0D%0A++[hanging]()+indent.

The key to problem is that the hard line break only occurs when the
first line ends with a link *and* the second line begins with one.
Actually, most any inline markup will do it (italics, bold, etc).
Given how inline patterns used to work, this makes sense (sort of).
However, in 2.0 that code has been completely refactored and works
very differently. We've eliminated a lot (hopefully all) of these edge
cases.

Oh wow; awesome!  Thanks for the update--sorry I didn't find out that
this was already known and fixed, earlier.

Thanks for your time.


Looking forward to Monday,
a.
