Code block syntax not strict enough

frankcyblogic.de

For instance, when referring to two other people I get accidentally a highlighted block:

@Mike: As you said....

@John: You are right!

Blabla, more useful info...

I just noticed it when reading this thread: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/161 . Post 5.

Thats because of the two @-chars:

@

@Mike: As you said....

@John: You are right!
@

The first one starts the code section, the second one ends it.

As far as I know, the Trolls are already thinking of a more clever solution regarding code highlighting. For the moment you can force a literal @ char by typing @.

Indeed, we want to require either a space or a line-break on the sides of the @ to invoke or end the syntax highlighter. Most usage of @ fits this pattern and it will then leave e-mail addresses and diff lines alone.

It's scheduled for the next roll-out (next week).
