/me action and hilight

• • • Issue /me action and hilight #107 opened by @s_fokin

when i have enabled hilight (e.g. for the 'hilight' word) and someone in channel says
/me doing hilight something
word 'something' appears in wrong color.
this bug(?) only appears when whole action shown in different color, not only nick. (e.g. action_core = "%P* $0- "; appears in theme without %n in the end.)
here is picture illustrating the bug: http://ccphys.nsu.ru/~237-fokin/irssi-bug.png
and theme i use: http://ccphys.nsu.ru/~237-fokin/default.theme (but i don't think this problem is in theme)
i have irssi 0.8.9 from debian sid.
*** Irssi: Client: irssi 0.8.9 (20031210 2316)
thanks

and one more thing
i think this two are somehow related
when message is like
4red textdefault color text
'default color text' appears in terminal default color, not default text color set up in colorscheme
or maybe i wrong and this is not bug but feature ? :-) then i think this behavior must be changed

The bug appears to be still open, at least for me in irssi 0.8.12 on Linux.
Hilight works normally for normal msgs, but the mess up colors when in /me command.

Hilight and action color is %r. Hilight is on mynick=curson.

"/me says hello to curson"
|<--------------------->|
All Red
"/me pokes curson around"
|<-------------->|<--->|
Red White

Apparently the hilight resets the color, but it's not theme dependant.
I think this 2004 bug is still fully open.
