With a recent update in gt, using
fmt_markdown()with text between$characters elicits a transformation of contained characters to formatted equation text in HTML. As noted in #561, even a single$character will evoke the unwanted transformation since the text in doubled in the HTML string.The short-term solution here is to replace any
$characters with their HTML entity%dollar;.This problem will need more investigation since there are other places in the codebase where
fmt_markdown()is used (likely with arbitrary text).Fixes: #561
