Fix query replacement for non-spaced queries
Bug
When querying a single word (without spaces), the substitution string ${query}
won't be replaced.
Explanation/Fix
string.gsub
returns two values: the string with substitutions and the number of substitutions made
If doing the nested gsub
, these two return values will be passed into the outer gsub
, which accepts an optional fourth parameter specifying how many substitutions should be made. So the number of substitutions in the inner gsub
determines the number of substitutions in the outer gsub
: When the query doesn't contain a blank, that number of substitutions in the inner gsub
is 0
and the outer gsub
won't replace anything, leaving ${query}
in the url
.
By first assigning the gsub
result to a variable, the number of substitutions return value will be ignored.
