Description Toralf Förster 2013-02-08 18:41:09 UTC

Within the #gentoo channel today I saw today, that the string :
(/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.6.3)
was highlighted starting from "bin:/usr/bin".

Except that it is even wrong to put the whole path construct into a link /me wonders why only a fraction was converted.

Reproducible: Always

It's a side-effect of short URL recognition (e.g. bit.ly/foo or whatever). Special-casing path context is on the todo.
