Description Nicolas Hüppelshäuser 2012-10-30 09:48:02 UTC 
Assume a note with title "Testnote (with braces)".

Writing this title into another note will highlight the character sequence as a link to the correct note - unless a character other than tabulator follows.

Same problem if the title ends on ']'.

No problem if the title reads "Testnote (with braces".

I did not test for other characters than ')' and ']' yet.

My Tomboy version is 1.13.2

This is almost certainly related to Bug 640752. I'll bet that both are caused by 
the check starting on line 766 in Watchers.cs (http://git.gnome.org/browse/tomboy/tree/Tomboy/Watchers.cs#n766). Since the ')' at the end of the title string ends neither a word nor a sentence, it is not highlighted. The same applies to special characters at the beginning of note titles, which causes the very related problem in Bug 640752. Perhaps we should merge them?

This seems to be fixed by my patch on bug 640752.
