TextileParser issues

[Sergey Trofimov]

Hello everyone.

We use TextileParser to format user messages in game chat.
Today I've realized, that call
TextileParser.toHtml(":-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*")
runs very long time (I don't know how long, maybe infinitely)

Also I see that formatting of string like ":-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*" is

<p>:-*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*:<del>*:</del>*</p>

what differs from formatting via http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/index.php where result is just
<p>:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*:-*</p>

Can this behavior be interpreted as a bug?

I don't think it's a bug.  You're welcome to open a ticket, but I doubt it will get addressed any time soon as I'm the only one who has done work on the Textile parser in the last few years and I'm not going to prioritize it up.  Sorry.

Hello David.

At the moment I can live without Textile, which is even overhead in my case.

But tickets are created:
