Link text disappears if it contains inline code in it

[KEINOS]

Thank you for providing us such a great, simple, nice and neat app!

It might be against Markdown's syntax rules but I found out that if the link ([]()) contains a word or phrase with enclosed backticks (`) in a "link text", the "link text" disappears.

$ cat sample.md
[`foo` bar](http://sample.com/)

[foo bar](http://sample.com/)

$ mdr sample.md
[](http://sample.com/)

[foo bar](http://sample.com/)

GitHub flavor markdown works tho: foo bar

I think what happens is that I assumed that the "link text" would be well, a simple ast.Text. It seems that was too much to assume. Relevant code is there: https://github.com/MichaelMure/go-term-markdown/blob/master/renderer.go#L300-L312

Man, Markdown is complex.

So I think the fix could be:

• on entering ast.Link, print [
• let whatever child node render in r.inlineAccumulator
• on exiting, print the rest: ](....)

That could get messy though if it's possible to have an image there.

Thanks for the quick response!

I agree. Too many flavors.

I'm not a Gopher but thinking of recursive processing ... uh ... I can imagine how tough it would be.

I'm not in a rush. So please take your time. Thank you!
