Subject: Lesser blocks allowing unescaped lines
Date: Sat, 30 Sep 2023 01:06:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <dafba8bc-bbb8-4110-a4f5-b1d673d3d295@app.fastmail.com> (raw)

This happens in worg at: https://git.sr.ht/~bzg/worg/tree/ba6cda890f200d428a5d68e819eef15b5306055f/exporters/ox-docstrings.org#L2490

The documentation for lesser blocks[1] states:
> Lines beginning with an asterisk or `#+` must be quoted by a comma (`,*`, `,#+`).

However, the following test document parses as a lesser block despite containing a line starting with an unescaped #+:
```
#+CATEGORY: foo
#+begin_src text
#+CATEGORY: bar
#+end_src
```

which parses as:
```
(org-data
(:standard-properties
  [1 1 1 60 60 0 nil org-data nil nil nil 3 60 nil #<buffer *scratch*> nil nil nil]
  :path nil :CATEGORY "foo")
(section
  (:standard-properties
   [1 1 1 60 60 0 nil first-section nil nil nil 1 60 nil #<buffer *scratch*> nil nil #0])
  (keyword
   (:standard-properties
    [1 1 nil nil 17 0 nil top-comment nil nil nil nil nil nil #<buffer *scratch*> nil nil #1]
    :key "CATEGORY" :value "foo"))
  (src-block
   (:standard-properties
    [17 17 nil nil 60 0 nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil #<buffer *scratch*> nil nil #1]
    :language "text" :switches nil :parameters nil :number-lines nil :preserve-indent nil :retain-labels t :use-labels t :label-fmt nil :value "#+CATEGORY: bar\n"))))
```

whereas I would expect this to be
```
(section
  (keyword :key "CATEGORY" :value "foo")
  (paragraph "#+begin_src text")
  (keyword :key "CATEGORY" :value "bar")
  (paragraph "#+end_src")
)
```

This test document shows that lines with an unescaped "*" do break up the lesser block:
```
* foo
#+begin_src text
* bar
#+end_src
```
