GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 772574
__xxx__ not interpreted as markdown when xxx begins with a non-word character (e.g. __-1__)
Last modified: 2016-12-29 18:45:39 UTC
When you use __xxx__ markdown to emphasise xxx this works fine. Except when xxx starts with a non-word character. For instance __-1__ doesn't get translated into <b>-1</b> in the html output, but stays __-1__ (the same goes for e.g. **-1**). A workaround is to use <b>-1</b> in the source code, but it would be nice if the markdown versions would work too.
Confirmed. Should be fixed in the next GIT update.
This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in doxygen version 1.8.13. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information that you think can be relevant (preferably in the form of a self-contained example).
