This commit may cause random failures when
org-emphasis-regexp-components is changed by user. org-emph-re is
calculated according to org-emphasis-regexp-components. Changing
org-emphasis-regexp-components can make "(when (looking-at org-emph-re)"
in parsers return nil. The emphasised text will still be fontified, but
not available in the parsed buffer.

Maybe we need to move the logic for org-emph-re from org.el to
org-element.el?

Also, there is org-emphasis-alist. It is even defcustom, but ignored by
org-element.el.

Best,
Ihor

This is not supported anyway.

That’s exactly my point. The syntax is not meant to be configurable.
I wrote a patch also removing ‘org-emph-re’ depedency from
"org-element.el", but I was delayed. I just applied it.

‘org-emph-re’ has some limitations which do not belong to syntax
definition. There’s no point in adding it in "org-element.el".

The grand scheme is to remove most "org.el" dependencies from
"org-element.el", and move the others.

This variable is a defcustom for the faces, not the markers. I.e., it is
not meant to add, remove, or change emphasis markup, but rather alter
how they appear. IMO, this should be removed altogether: it’s up to
a theme to set such a thing.

Yeah. Though I have seen people changing this variable.
Maybe we should change defvar to defconst?

That would be great. I was thinking about unifying the grammar better.
Things like org-set-regexps-and-options define part of the grammar
non-transparently outside org-element. As a result, the new org-persist
library can be potentially broken if the user changes grammar between
Emacs session (e.g. org-off-levels-only, org-todo-keywords, etc). Keeping
all the variables that change the grammar in one place would be helpful.

Maybe we could save the complete grammar state right inside output of
org-element-parse-buffer. In the updated element cache code, I
introduced properties into org-data element. Maybe we can keep all the
important variables for the buffer grammar in org-data? That way, the
job of org-set-regexps-and-options will be done by
org-element-org-data-parser. Moreover, users exporting using ox-org will
be able to create self-sufficient Org files that can be shared without
relying on the same configuration in init.el.

Unless I miss something, org-emphasis-alist is used in org-emphasise.
Though it just another reason to remove it.

Better docs and some restriction on defcustom values were discussed earlier:

Sorry, I have not prepared a patch. I am not confident with defcustom 
fine tuning and have not experimented with it since that time.

hmm i will have to try not setting o-e-r-c [ordinary user].  probably
a lot of users do.

might be useful to know whether a default regexp change could satisfy
everybody?  in my case i remove " and , from third re.  i also have a
note "org-set-emph-re is what you are supposed to use, but it is
undocumented".  for some reason.  that might be obsolete,

Samuel, I have seen your next message, but it still may be helpful to 
have an example (for a case if you will meet the problem again).

These regexps will always fail under some conditions, since it is not 
strict markup. An example is emphasis terminated inside link target

/A link [[https://orgmode.org/?oops=true][Org Mode]]

Thank you, Ihor. Another reason why I have not tried to do it myself is 
that it is necessary to test behavior for users who customized markers. 
The change should not be fatal for them. I have not checked it with you 
patch yet.

I was considering some way to warn users if improper customization is 
detected (unexpected marker is noticed). It should be noticeable to make 
user aware of export issues but not too annoying.

Since this is known point of abuses, maybe stronger words are appropriate.

Do not change makers and do not add new ones to use custom markers for 
existing styles or to introduce new styles. Org syntax is not meant to 
be configurable and such modifications will not work with export. If you 
are interested in fontification of custom markup inside Emacs only, 
there are other ways to achieve desired effect.

In addition, I do not like the following phrase in the manual:

> To narrow down the list of available markup syntax, you can customize org-emphasis-alist.

i think i found it useful, long ago, when it was ok/tolerated to
change the var, and probably still, to /"do this"/ and /this,/.

although the latter seems weird to me now so i must not now understand
what i was doing.

i think changing the var was at least in a faq or on worg or so, so it
might be needed to compare user's value with standard-value.

Your example actually reveals a much bigger issue with current element
parser. Even though the link is fontified by Org, if you run
org-element-context on the link, it will return nil. The parsed sentence
will look like:

<begin italic>/A link [[https://orgmode.org/<end italic><begin ordinary
text - it is not a link!>?oops=true][Org Mode]]<end of ordinary text>

The reason behind is partially regexps used to detect emphasised text
and partially the way our parser works - no intersected objects are
allowed.

My intuition says that the current parser behaviour is not correct. It
would make more sense to prioritise link over italics. However, it would
require a major change in the parser - instead of a single pass, the
parser may parse different types of objects sequentially. The emphasis
objects should come last avoiding the markers to have different parents.

Nicolas, WDYT?

I updated the patch dropping your last suggested sentence in the
docstring. I find it not very helpful for the user. We should either say
nothing (as in the patch) or give a concrete reference how to "achieve
the desired effect".

I disagree. Priority should be given to the first object being started.
This is, IMO, the only sane way to handle syntax.

Multi-pass may indeed over-complicate the syntax.
However, it is not clear then how to handle situations like

/A link [[https://orgmode.org/?oops=true][Org Mode]]
or
/A code ~user/?my-user-variable~ with slash/
or
/A verbatim =text/.= with slash/

Should we modify the closing-re for emphasis?

You can use a zero-width space to help Org sorting out the ambiguity,
for example (| denotes the zero-width space):

  /|A link [[https://orgmode.org/?oops=true][Org Mode]]

  /A code ~user|/?my-user-variable~ with slash/

I don't think it is necessary. /word/? seems a valid sentence closing.

Makes sense. Maybe we should also mention it in the Markup section of
the manual? I attached a tentative patch.

Also, part of the problem with
/|A link [[https://orgmode.org/?oops=true][Org Mode]]
is that the link is emphasised despite not being parser as a link by
org-element. I attached a patch for our link/emphasis fontification that
makes sure that fontification is always consistent with the parser. The
patch might hit the performance slightly, but I do not see obvious
slowdown using my 15Mb notes file.

Best,
Ihor

I disagree with the wording. Org mode has no difficulties recognizing
markup nor does it parses text incorrectly. This is similar to the well
known surprise:

  #+begin_example
  * something
  #+end_example

Here, we are simply fooled by the fontification process.

Otherwise, the patch looks good to me.

I sympathize with the idea. As long as fontification does not rely on
the parser, we will face issues like the one at stake. So, ultimately,
Org will hopefully move in that direction.

However, I'm not convinced making such local changes is going to help us
in the long run. It may be more fruitful to think this evolution
globally, as it involves a fair bit of rewriting of the fontification
process. For example, it may only be necessary to parse the part of the
Org document being fontified only once, and then apply all fontification
functions to the resulting tree rather than have each of them calling
the parser, like the above.

In any case, I think fontification deserves a dedicated thread, in
addition to some love.

I updated the patch. If you have no objections on the new wording, I

Ok. I will create a new discussion thread on fontification.

D. Knuth in "The TeXbook" put punctuation outside of emphasized text, 
however he mentioned that accordingly to old manuals semicolon should be 
typed in the same font as previous word.

I just have never tried to add custom decorations, so it is difficult 
for me to express it by a concise phrase. I even do not know if the 
following recipe could be recommended

https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/35626/how-to-make-my-own-org-mode-text-emphasis-work-again

 From other messages I had an impression that it is still possible to 
create custom markup with new marker but actually it was broken years 
ago:

It makes details of implementation less important.

To my taste fixed order of markers (:type list) is too rigid. If a user 
reordered a couple of items then multi-value customization form becomes 
single multiline input area. :set function might sort items, but I do 
not like such solution.

Since I have not found a way to improve customization interface with 
reasonable efforts, I believe that the patch is acceptable. It should be 
an improvement, but not an outstanding one.

My draft version is attached. Ihor, thank you for inspiration. Feel free 
to improve it. I hope, it makes problem more apparent to user who tries 
to customize markers. Have I missed some undesired side effects?

Unfortunately with "set" type in defcustom "catch inappropriate" item is 
not hidden for valid configuration.

I do not mind if you commit any variant.

Thanks for the update, and apologies in advance for being bold, as

Org _does_ parse emphasized text correctly. It may be seen as
unintuitive, but it's really a fontification problem. Anyway, this is
just a commit message…

> +=*=, =/=, =_=, ===, and =~= symbols inside =verbatim= or ~code~ can

OK, but it's not limited to symbols within verbatim or code. What about
something like:

  Sometimes, when marked text also contains the marker character itself,
  the result may be unsettling.

  ...example follows (see below)...

> +#+begin_example
> +/The whole line is supposed to be marked italic, but the following
> +~user/?variable~ contains italics =/= marker and confuses Org parser/.
> +#+end_example

The whole line is not supposed to be marked as italic, as long as we
follow Org syntax. And the parser is not confused at all. The user may
be, however.

I suggest:

  /One may expect this whole sentence to be italicized, but the
  following ~user/?variable~ contains =/= character, which effectively
  stops emphasis there./

> +You can use zero width space to help Org sorting out the ambiguity.
> +See [[*Escape Character]] for more details.

Thinking about it a bit more, you might be right: we may slightly change
the closing part of the emphasis regexp, e.g.:

  (seq
   (not space)
   (group ,mark)
   (or (any space ?- ?')
       (and (any ?. ?, ?\; ?: ?! ?? ?\" ?\) ?\} ?\\ ?\[) (or space line-end))
       line-end))

The logic behind this is that in regular text, we assume usual
punctuation rules apply.

My concern is that the more complicated is the rule, the more difficult
it is to predict. Also, we introduce new corner case, e.g.,

  Woot! I just released Org *10*.0!

So, I'm not totally convinced it is worth the trouble.

Regards,

Constructive critics and suggestions are always welcome. And we do not
have pressing deadlines here :)

Agree. It just that the example in the patch _feels_ wrong considering
intuitive definition of verbatim borrowed from LaTeX.

Commit messages are also important, especially years later. I updated
the commit message in the attached new version of the patch.

This will fail for "*Bold*?!" or "/Italics/!!!"

Also, is there any reason why we are not simply using punctuation
character class instead of listing punctuation chars explicitly (and
only for English)? What about "_你叫什么名字_?"

Maybe just

(seq
 (not space)
 (group ,mark)
 (0+ (in punctuation))
 (or space line-end))

I am not sure if "Org *10*.0" is a good general example. It is probably
one of those cases when users want fine control over emphasis and must
use zero width space.

Ihor

I am not very familiar with :set customisation. Could you elaborate what

We probably do not need to mention to-be-deprecated variables in manual.
It will only confuse users.

Maybe we should also take a chance and deprecate org-emphasis-alist now?
We can introduce org-bold/italics/... faces and use them in
org-emphasis-alist default value.

Best,

I am afraid of confusion of ":set" defcustom parameter and "set" type in 
":type" parameter.

I mean "set" instead of "repeat" (or "list" in your patch). It is 
collection of *unique* items. Other variants allow to add several 
entries for the same marker, e.g. "*". Set does not allow users to add 
duplicated entries. I started from your description of allowed entries
and changed rigid "list" type to "set" and added (approximately)

           (list :tag "Unsupported ignored"
	   (string :tag "Marker")
	   (choice :tag "Font"
	    (face :tag "Face")
	    (plist :tag "Property list"))
	   (option (const verbatim))

to notify user that some part of configuration does not work, it is 
always shown in `customize-variable' interface, even as a disabled 
option for default configuration.

With repeat, "Unsupported" options are not present in customization 
buffer, unless user has something like

(custom-set-variables
   '(org-emphasis-alist
      (quote
        (
	("*" bold)
	("_" underline)
	("=" org-verbatim verbatim)
	("/" italic)
	("~" org-code verbatim)
	("!" org-todo) ;; does not work
	("+" (:strike-through t)))))
   )

It is possible to add "seq" entry to catch list entries having 
completely invalid structure, but I decided that it is redundant.

So with "repeat" type user may notice "Unsupported ignored" option in 
customization interface. I think, it is not enough, so I added ":set" 
function that issues a warning during load time. Invalid configuration 
may still remain hidden in the case of `setq' instead of 
`custom-set-variables' in the init file or `eval-after-load' hook. I am 
afraid, nothing could be done to reliably detect the last case.

>> +~org-emphasis-alist~ variable, but it will be deprecated.

I do not insist. My intention is to inform users that wide spread 
recipes should be avoided.

I do not mind. I have never experimented with themes, so I would leave 
this part of work to someone else.

Historically, Org only focused on ASCII. But it makes sense to extend
the allowed punctuation characters, indeed.

This is orthogonal to OP's issue, however.

This is simply the first example that crossed my mind. My point is that
changing the regexp substantially may not be rewarding, ultimately.

Agree. At least not until we find a clearly better variant.

Yet, I do not like the current state of things. Especially with regards
to mixing emphasis and hidden parts of links. Situations like in
/A link [[https://orgmode.org/?oops=true][Org Mode]]
or like reported in
https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/87pmtqp79s.fsf@web.de/ can be very hard
to notice and cause "mysterious" Org failures.

A patch is attached. I have dropped changes in documentation since I am 
not the author of them.

For init file (entries may be in arbitrary order)

It seems punctuation character class is too broad. E.g.
     ¿ INVERTED QUESTION MARK
normally appears before words, while "?" is usually after them. I do not 
see anything special in
     (category-set-mnemonics (char-category-set ?¿))
that may help to discriminate such cases.

An example that confuses fontification but not parser:
     : false [[http://te.st/dir?b-=&a=-][verbatim]] fontification
It is a simplified example, original one:

Origin of such expectation is not only TeX that changes category of 
characters for argument of verbatim commands. In markdown links and code 
have higher priorities than emphasis as well:

     echo 'A _b `c_ d` e_ f' | pandoc -f markdown -t html -
     <p>A <em>b <code>c_ d</code> e</em> f</p>

Org:
     A _b =c_ d= e_ f
export result (it is more concise and easier to read than output of 
`org-element-parse-secondary-string'):
     <p>
     A <span class="underline">b =c</span> d= e_ f
     </p>

Link in markdown:

     echo 'A _b c <https://orgmode.org/index.htm_?k=v> d e_ f' \
          | pandoc -f markdown -t html -
     <p>A <em>b c <a href="https://orgmode.org/index.htm_?k=v" 
class="uri">https://orgmode.org/index.htm_?k=v</a> d e</em> f</p>

Org:
     <p>
     A <span class="underline">b /c &lt;<a 
href="https://orgmode.org/index.htm">https://orgmode.org/index.htm</a></span>?k=v&gt; 
d/ e_ f
     </p>

I can not estimate efforts necessary to implement priorities of objects 
(verbatim - link - emphasis) in org-elements parser since I have not 
looked into its code. Comparing the following snippets, I might naively 
expect some kind of backtracking:

- A /b *c +d e+ f*    g/ h
- A /b *c +d    f* e+    h

I admit that I can be wrong and "first wins" approach handles buffer of 
incomplete parsed entities in a different way.

P.S. In reStructured text simple nesting is not allowed, maybe it is 
possible to use replacements.

I don't see any incentive to change the order objects are parsed, once
you know how Org does it. This is just a red herring. What is useful,
however, is to fontify them the way Org sees them.

Sorry for the late reply.

I have reviewed the patch, and I'd like to suggest a new version with the
following changes:
1. Use `set-default-toplevel-value' instead of `set' that might be
   quirky in some scenarios.
2. Use `warn' instead of `message' as more alarming.
3. Remove verbatim in ("=" org-verbatim verbatim), ("~" org-code
   verbatim), and the :type spec.  AFAIU, they are unused. But can you
   please double-check?

Great! I have not tried your patch in action, but I do not see

Almost certainly it is an improvement. Docs in the Emacs repo have been 
updated, but the published variant still suggests `set-default'

I do not mind.

It seems, before the following commit, verbatim was used to suppress 
flyspell, but now "~" and "=" are hardcoded.

and `org-verbatim-re'

I think, verbatim option should not be removed from `defcustom' :type 
just now. For some users it might cause fallback to raw lisp value in 
easy customization UI. Perhaps another warning should be added to the 
`org-set-emphasis-alist' validator and the option should be labeled as 
unused in the :type definition.

Makes sense.
What about the attached patch?
The idea is to tag the constant as deprecated.

Subject: [PATCH v4] org.el: Warn about unsupported markers in
 `org-set-emphasis-alist'

* lisp/org.el (org-emphasis-alist, org-set-emphasis-alist): Change
custom variable type definition and add :set parameter to warn users
that non-standard marker characters are ignored.  Remove unused third
list entry from the default value.

Attempts to introduce new markers have been discussed enough times to
add some code that should prevent wasting of time.

Unfortunately there is no way to issue warning for e.g. `setq'.

I further improved the patch adding variable watcher. This should catch
everything. See the attached.

Let me know if there are any objections.

`add-variable-watcher' may be fragile for lists, but it should catch 
most obvious attempts to modify the list. To my surprise 
`add-variable-watcher' is used in just a few places in Emacs sources.

Taking into account your modifications, I think you can reset the commit 
author.

I am unsure concerning let. Perhaps the user needs something strange if 
let is used in some code instead of usual setq in init.el, so behavior 
may be too noisy.

Looking into easy customization UI I have found current tag text rather 
confusing. What about "Verbatim (deprecated and ignored)"?

Thank you for further improvements of the patch. I will not object if 
you apply the patch as is.

Are you still going to fix the manual a bit?

Thinking more I have realized that I am in doubts if 
`add-variable-watcher' is appropriate tool in this particular case. The 
only way to get some effect from change of `org-emphasis-alist' is to 
call `org-set-emph-re' (its :set function), so it should be enough to 
call `org-emphasis-alist--check-value' from `org-set-emph-re'.

I have no idea what should be considered as best practice: should 
`set-default-toplevel-value' be combined with changes of `org-emph-re' 
as it is done in current code or `org-set-emph-re' should be split into 
the function that modifies `org-emph-re' (so it can be called 
separately) and a tiny setter (that may be defined as lambda this case) 
that calls the new function and `set-default-toplevel-value'.

Upon looking closer, `org-set-emph-re' is not affected by the value of
`org-emphasis-alist' with a single exception when the value is nil.

I now reviewed the usage of `org-emphasis-alist' and setting/changing
the value has the following effects:

1. nil (and only nil) value makes `org-emph-re' and `org-verbatim-re'
   nil. Otherwise, these regexps are not affected.

   Also, `org-emph-re' only affects fontification.
   `org-verbarim-re' affects fontification and
   `org-in-verbatim-emphasis'. The latter should be fixed to use
   org-element API.

2. The value affects `org-mode-transpose-word-syntax-table'. Should be
   fixed - parser is not affected by `org-emphasis-alist'.

3. Fontification is affected in `org-do-emphasis-faces'.

4. Emphasis selection dialogue in `org-emphasize' is only using the
   emphasis from the alist.

That's all.

I think that we should simply obsolete `org-emphasis-alist' and
introduce individual faces for emphasis.

You are right, it is result of the following commit:

9fb2e047d 2016-12-08 09:44:26 +0100 Nicolas Goaziou: Split `org-emph-re' 
and `org-verbatim-re'

> I think that we should simply obsolete `org-emphasis-alist' and

I agree with your conclusions and proposal.

If you are close to merging fontification based on org-element then we 
may just discard this patch. Otherwise it may be merged with minimal 
modifications:
- Do not add the watcher
- Instead of `org-set-emph-re' use a lambda calling new 
`org-emphasis-alist--check-value` as the :set attribute of `defcustom'.
- Fix description of verbatim tag.

The last resort is define-category where we can manage exceptions.
But I think that even without distinguishing ?¿, we can improve the
situation for CJK users a lot.

We can probably split character categories into "left", "right", and
"neutral" with "(" being "left" example, ")" being "right" example, and
" " being "neutral" example.
We start from using the information we can extract from Unicode data and
modify it as necessary.

Then, emphasis will be defined as PRE MARKER ... MARKER POST with
PRE = left+neutral category
POST = right+neutral category

Hi Ihor,
   Thank you for looping me in. Best,
Tom

The way I have implemented this is by maintaining an explicit list of
characters that are safe for pre markup and another for post markup.

It is not possible to use unicode punctuation for this because there
are a variety of punctuation marks that cannot appear in that position
and be considered markup, those include @, #, % to name just a few.

Therefore, if we want to do this we commit to extending and then
maintaining the lists of valid pre and post markup delimiters as
special cases.

Note also this could produce changes from current behavior because
things that previously tokenized as a series of words connected by
e.g. underscores could become markup.

The alternative would be (as usual in these cases) for the user to
add a zero width space or something like that between the end of the
markup marker and the symbol they want to follow the markup. This
solution is (trivially) backward compatible, and works for all chars
regardless of whether org-mode has blessed them as sanctioned marks.

My inclination would be not to make this change because there are a
potentially infinite number of future "left right neutral" marks
that we would have to maintain and would occasionally have to field
requests from users to add them, and those solutions would not work
with older versions of org.

Not that bad.
Unicode standard defines the following categories (I listed those that
might be of use):

Pc = Punctuation, connector
Pd = Punctuation, dash
Ps = Punctuation, open
Pe = Punctuation, close
Pi = Punctuation, initial quote (may behave like Ps or Pe depending on usage)
Pf = Punctuation, final quote (may behave like Ps or Pe depending on usage)
Po = Punctuation, other
Zs = Separator, space
Zl = Separator, line
Zp = Separator, paragraph

We currently use the following:
PRE  = <bol> <space> - ( ' " {
POST = <space> - . ; : ! ? ' " ) } \ [

At least, ({ have
(get-char-code-property ?{ 'general-category) ;=> Ps (punctuation, open)

We might probably generalize to
PRE  = Zs Zl Pc Pd Ps Pi ' "
POST = Zs Zl Pc Pd Pe Pf . ; : ! ? ' " \ [

Though we need to take care excluding zero-width spaces.

I can find https://www.unicode.org/review/pr-23.html that defines
punctuation terminals like .;:!?
It looks like it is adopted, via special properties:
https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/#STerm and
https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/#Terminal_Punctuation

Emacs does not support them though (yet?).

We certainly do not want to do this. It is out of scope of Org, when
Unicode can be of use.

Indeed. And we should study the feedback.
However, most scenarios that will change will involve non-standard
Unicode markup characters. The odds are low that users will use such
Unicode at markup boundary and _also expect markup to be ignored_. At
the end, it is the current ASCII limitation plus partially arbitrary
choice of boundaries that keep some users confused (we are getting bug
reports about confusing markup from time to time).

Of course, we can, as usual, provide a linter to catch such scenarios
and warn in the ORG_NEWS.

I do believe that better Unicode support will benefit many Org users
that use non-Latin scripts.

If this works I think it is reasonable. We might want to
specify what to do in cases where an org implementation
might not fully support unicode, and might want to do a
review of related issues in syntax with respect to ascii
vs unicode, because iirc there is some ambiguity in
the current syntax doc.

For example, I'm pretty sure that I'm mixing and matching
unicode and ascii whitespace in the tokenizer I have in Racket.

> Though we need to take care excluding zero-width spaces.

Ya, I removed a comment to this effect in the paragraph about
the usual alternate solution.

> Emacs does not support them though (yet?).

Racket has full support for the latest unicode standards iirc,
so I will see if I can leverage that support for testing in laundry.

Ya, it would be good to try to generalize the affordance if possible since
users of text in non-ascii languages have certain valid expectations. Hopefully,
the unicode consortium has managed to cover the categories we need.

Just fall back to ASCII subset? If the implementation does not support
unicode, it probably cannot properly work with UTF-encoded documents
anyway.

Feel free to open new bug reports about such ambiguities.
