Strange behaviour when db-clicking

Post by Hallvard Ystad »

I do some rebol programming and use the rebol syntax definition file that's downloadable from this site. In a rebol script, I have the following comment at the end of a block (comments start with a ";"):

] ; end LZW-stringtable LZW-stringtable/clear-table

Now, if I db-click on the _second_ occurance of the word "LZW-stringtable", Paddy selects " end LZW-stringtable LZW-stringtable" (without the quotes, of course).

Why is that?

Three more details:

1) If there is no slash after the second occurance of "LZW-stringtable", Paddy behaves. The moment I put the slash back (even with no word after it), the funny selection reappears.

2) If I db-click the word after the slash, i.e. "clear-table" and then move the mouse to the left, the wrong behaviour appears.

3) By using the keyboard to select words, I am not able to reproduce the error.
