Menu Formatting Code Block, Bug or ?

[Trebor87]

Hello

I'm new to Retext, but so far it exactly what I need, so first of many thanks ;)

I have a question, I use triple backticks to wrap certain lines of text in my notes ans show properly in the preview pane, I do that with AltGr+7 as I'm running a French Azerty keyboard on a English Arch Linux PC

This works fine, except maybe a little bug, I have the backticks coloured so that I can see them easily in the text section, out of the three ``` the first two are coloured but not the last one, now strangely if I insert four ```` all four are coloured.

But if I try the use the 'Menu Formatting Code Block' option it just inserts 4 spaces which i believe is meant to do the same as the backticks this is not taken into account in the preview pane, so bug or ?

Again thanks for a great program

I can reproduce the problem and have fixed it by editing some of the ReText's python config files. I will make a pull request soon.

Here's an screenshot of what @Trebor87 is describing (note the green highlighting is not showing when the backticks are odd numbered):

And here is after my fix

I merged #669 so I think we can close this.

This is my first contribution to such a big project! Thanks for the merge, @mitya57 and for the clear comments and reviewing my code. 😊
