The markdown parser doesn't trigger when a piece of text is italicized like this: `*hello *` Currently results in: *hello * For example my system and browser select "hello " with the trailing whitespace when I double click on that word. Expected: markdown formatting to be inserted as <`*hello* `> despite trailing (and preceding) whitespaces. (I love markdown so much: it stripped the trailing whitespace in the last code block) Next step: support for multi-selection? Using CTRL+Mouse you can select "one" and "three", leaving out the "two": - one - two - three The formatting buttons will only apply markdown to the first selection (common problem for many websites unfortunately) PS: Firefox-based browser
