Bit of an essay so we're all on the same page... wikiview.py makes wiki-like links in body text by *visually* converting unl:///path/to/some/leofile.leo#Website-->Pages-->Background-->Rationale to just Rationale but setting the font size of the rest of the link to 0px. When the cursor moves through the invisible text it's reset to regular size for editing. I also use and value it for rendering as &, as is the best solution I've found for non-breaking space in markdown for papers where you don't want numbers and units separated etc. wikiview.py originally ran a post pass after the old colorizer without issues, I think it started biting the end off body text with the new colorizer, possibly because they were both working on the text at the same time? Edward you worked on it, I though with the intent of merging it into the colorizer code, although the plugin still needs to be enabled for wikiview patterns to have any effect. I think your work at least had the effect of changing the patterns it uses from generic regex to the leading character patterns used by the colorizer. *However* I've had it enabled again for some time and not seen any issues lately. I'd feel more sure if it was merged into the colorizer code, but it hasn't bitten me for some time. It may just be that I haven't been working on the longish body texts with urls at the end it was tripping on before.
