I have invested a fair amount of work into a Tiddlywiki v5.1.19 but have noticed, in rare occasions some websites use the left and right brackets [] in an URL that produces search results, but TW does not make this into a live link. The linkification stops at the first bracket it finds. The tiddler in question that contains this link uses the Tiddlywiki markup language.

How can I modify TW5.1.19 to include the left and right brackets, when it linkifies an URL, for a TW tiddler and Markdown tiddler? Sometimes I use the Markdown addin.

Example URLS are below.


These brackets normally appear in the URL bar of my browser for a search.  Both examples above are for a search and I will sometimes use a link for the search in a tiddler.

Thank you!

Oh wait, maybe one cannot add brackets as part of the URL for markdown, because links are created with brackets, like this: [This is the link text](http://google.com). This is widely accepted markdown for an URL with link text.
