Bug Description

Binary package hint: source-highlight

Ubuntu 7.10 with source-highlight 2.4-5.1build1

Very simple c-file:
/*
http://www.helsinki.fi/~rantalai
 */
int main() {
return 0;
}

So I expected that the whole link is underlined.

But source-highlight produces:
--snip--
<pre><tt><i><font color="#9A1900">/*</font></i>
<u><font color="#0000FF">http://www.helsinki.fi/</font></u><i><font color="#9A1900">~rantalai</font></i>
<i><font color="#9A1900"> */</font></i>
--snip--

I also tried out 2.9 (this package really should be updated) and also there is not fixed.

The workaround solution is simply to add the tilde (~) character in the regex which is used for url parsing:

1. Open the file /usr/share/source-highlight/url.lang with su rights
2. Add a ~in the vardef URLPART = '[[:word:]\./\-_]+' line, like:

vardef URLPART = '[[:word:]\./\-_~]+'

3. save and exit

Now the url is parsed correctly.
Before fixing this (and possibly updating the package) could you pls. let me know if you find any regression after this change?

Updated to version 2.9 and fix committed locally (upstream confirmed that this is the right fix). Will upload to official repo in the next few days.

I'm waiting for an official 2.10 tarball from upstream to publish this.
