Highlighting does not work with escaped "\="

[jomo]

renderer = Redcarpet::Render::HTML.new
md = Redcarpet::Markdown.new(renderer, {highlight: true})
md.render("==url_param\===")

produces:

<p><mark>url_param</mark>=</p>

I'm expecting it to output:

<p><mark>url_param=</mark></p>

Unforunately my C skills are very limited, so I have no idea how to fix it :(

Hello @jomo,

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for reporting! It looks like all emphasis have the problem ; I will try to have a look:

>> require 'redcarpet'
=> true
>> parser = Redcarpet::Markdown.new(Redcarpet::Render::HTML);
>> parser.render("**foo\***")
=> "<p><strong>foo</strong>*</p>\n"

Perhaps related to #214?

This has been addressed in #380. By the way, there is gotcha with double quotes, you should write:

"==url_param\\==="
# or
'==url_param\==='

So my example is wrong as well, it should be '**foo\***'. Thanks for reporting anyway! :-)
