Description
Currently all of the following examples get bolded by the monaco editor:
**hello**
** hello**
**hello **
** hello **
Here's how its rendered by the monaco playground:
monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById('container'), {
value: "**hello**\n** hello**\n**hello **\n** hello **",
language: 'markdown'
});
While only the first line should be according to the Markdown Spec and example 361 of the GitHub Flavored Markdown Spec:
To bold text, add two asterisks or underscores before and after a word or phrase. To bold the middle of a word for emphasis, add two asterisks without spaces around the letters.
It also appears that VSCode correctly applies the bolding only to the first line:
This behavior makes it confusing if using monaco to implement something like a markdown rendered, since the highlighted code will not match the rendered preview.
