Apparently, our use of JavaScript string `.replace()` here was buggy,
because replace() has several special escape sequences starting with
`$` if they appear in the replacement content string. We can work
around this through something of a hack, which is to pass a function
as the second argument to replace, which seems cleaner than replacing
all $s with $$s.
Thanks to Shreya for the report.
The correct behavior here is that we want to ensure there is
whitespace in between the syntax being added and the content on either
side. Our smart_insert logic handled this for the cases that were
common with inserting emoji (etc.), but didn't handle the more complex
cases with "quote and reply".
Fixes#11702.
This run_test helper sets up a convention that allows
us to give really short tracebacks for errors, and
eventually we can have more control over running
individual tests. (The latter goal has some
complications, since we often intentionally leak
setup in tests.)
This appends a space when text is inserted at the end of a message
using `compose_ui.insert_syntax_and_focus`. This is definitely what
users expect when using this feature.
Fixes: #8569.
This fixes compose.test_video_link_compose_clicked to just
use a stub for compose_ui.insert_syntax_and_focus.
It also adds direct tests for compose_ui.insert_syntax_and_focus.
Fixes#6362
