There's a little problem with faces in org-indent-mode.  Faces that
highlight to the end of the line (hl-line-face, org-level-faces if
org-fontify-whole-header-line is on, etc) get carried over to the start
of text on the next line.  Faces like that are pretty rare, but I
thought I'd go ahead and report this.

I don't know if it's the same as what you report, but I can see the same behaviour also in this file:


* something
aaa =eee
* two= *iii
ooo* uuu


  Open/close/expand/contract as needed. In my Emacs 23 with latest org I see it wrongly highlighted just after opening it (headings contracted):
  What I see wrong is:
- the „code“ face comprises =eee \n* two=
- the „bold“ face comprises *iii\nooo*
( \n = ⏎ = line break ). So both span past the end of the line. This only happens if the next line is consecutive (with no blank lines).

Hi,

that is an Emacs bug, not an Org-mode bug.

Yes, this is kind of hard to fix......  And a minor issue, I guess... ?

  Yes, it's a minor issue. I like minor issues :-)

  There are two display problems here:
- a face defined before a heading enters the heading (like the =eee…=)
- a face defined in a heading goes on past the heading (like the *iii…)

  I did some tests with org-emph-re (original value: [1]); the interesting part is \\(?:\n.*?\\)\\{0,1\\} because it is the one that allows the face to extend up to 1 line below.
  The .*? from there comes from the so-called body in org-emphasis-regexp-components, body="."
  I have done some tests and I think that body="\\(?:\\*+[^\n ]\\|[^\n*]\\)." fixes the first problem. The expression represents a non-heading line: anything not starting by * (except when the initial * precedes a word) and then many other characters (a "*?" at the end will be added by org-set-emph-re)
  Final value: [2]

  Is this added complexity worth it? The bug is unpleasant (headings aren't coloured as headings) and performance shouldn't be much affected in the common case because ^\\* fails early. Only visually it is a complex regexp.

  I don't know how to detect the other problem inside a regular expression. Maybe there's some way to ask „don't cross boundaries between headings and content“.

Hi Daniel,

thanks for looking deeper into the issue.

As you have noticed yourself, your proposal fixes only half of
the problem.  Doing this emphasis with a regular expression
is really hard, and each time you change something, another
thing will break.  The real solution for this would be to
switch to a programmed solution instead of a regular
expression search.

Your proposed change does fix a problem, but it also breaks
the structure of how the emphasis regexp is constructed.  BODY
is supposed to match a character that should be emphasized.  Maybe
it can be re-written so that this does not have to be part of the BODY.

Also, there are similar issues with this in tables: Try

   | *h | h  |
   | h  | h* |

or also with comments:

  Some text *h mamma mia
# terminate bold in comment*

So I will out this on the back burner and try to get myself
to implement programmed emphasis at some point.

Sorry.

- Carsten

  Or many regular expressions, one for each context: table, heading, comment, text, …
  Based on the context, you choose one or another. To know the context, there may be some text property set at each point.
  If Emacs had a way to check for a text property (or even a face) inside a regexp, this could be easier. You could still use a single expression which would direct to the context-specific part, like in:  \p{heading}REGEXP_ONLY_FOR_HEADINGS\|\p{table}REGEXP_FOR_TABLES\|…   where \p{property} is the proposed addition to Emacs regexps.


  This was a minor issue, but making Emacs regexps more powerful would be nice.

All we would really need are positive and negative look-ahead
and look-behind assertions as the Perl regular expression allows them.
