Unintentional emoticons

[Jean-Philippe Ouellet]

Emoticon replacement is occurring where it is not called for.

When I type ") it is converted to

This is quite unfortunate when you just want to put strings inside parentheses. See this post as an example. (just try to quote-reply to the message to clearly see what I intended for it to look like)

When you click on the smiley face on top of the message input box and click , it adds ;) so why should ") also be the same face.

Also, I would like to propose that we disable emoticon replacement inside code blocks so that we don't run into things like

Code:

foreach $n (0..($segs-1)) {
    $np=($n<($segs-1))?($n+1):0;
    $nm=($n>0)?($n-1):($segs-1);
    ...

as found here.

print("Hello World!");
should not read
print("Hello World!");



Note: I am inserting [b][/b] in-between the two characters that make up the emoticon in order to prevent it from being converted to a face.

Edit: This post may not make a whole lot of sense anymore to those who were not here earlier and thus don't know what I'm referring to. Just trust me, there were little yellow smiley faces everywhere... just trust me
