It works but I get wrong output when having for example **this and **this,
because this kind of text is not supposed to be marked as bold. (**this
and** should be bold on the other hand)
So I modified my rule this way, to exclude white spaces before or after:
Markup ('txt2tags_bold' , 'directives', '/\*\*[^\s](.*?)[^\s]
\*\*/' , "'''$1'''");
Now it almost works, **this and **this are not catched, but the bold parts
are not correct, the first and last letters are striped out, for example
**another** would become nothe (in bold). Do you know why, and how to
correct this?
You need to place the parentheses around everything that is meant to be
bold, for example '/\*\*([^\s].*?[^\s])\*\*/' .
However, this will not allow you a single bold character. This one will:
'/\\*\\*(\\S(.*?\\S)?)\\*\\*/'
This means :
- starts with a '**'
- opening the first matched pattern (
- then a non-whitespace-character \\S, same as [^\\s]
- opening a second pattern (
- .* anything, ending with a non-whitespace-character \\S
- closing the second pattern )
- the ? after the ) means the pattern is optional
- closing the first matching pattern )
- once again '**'.
This is fun :-)
