Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

P-C, all this has been remedied in the lab.

Am-Chaun has done some testing there, but only by her lonely.

Bring your t br's on!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You're not having a good linking day today, are you, Gus.

No.

Fixed, now.

P-C, What were you testing here: [link] (#168)?

Remember my original problem of not closing the original tag with a right caret?

<BROops I'm dumb

I tried it with various other tags:

<bThis should be here and bold</b>

And I thought maybe the code would fill in that right caret and make the tag functional, but instead it just obliterated everything from the left caret onward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's asking for a lot of guessing, P-C.

Computers aren't good at guessing??? Who'da thunk it?

I know, but Gus is a badass.

Oh. I don't think we want to chase after malformed tags. There are just too many ways to malform them.

eta: despite the badness of my ass.

wheaties:

There hasn't been much independent testing going on in the lab. If we're comfortable that the all function is there, though, I can move on to making the changes to do the automagic stuff on display, rather than before save. This will allow preservation of the text in P-C's testcase.

My present guess is that comparing the timing of a threadsuck in the present mode to the timing of the same threadsuck in the on-display mode will get us a number reflecting the performance impact. Anyone have a better test in mind?
