Description

Allowing \| or \/ is all well and good, but if one can't escape the escape character, things get very confusing! So let's make it possible to escape \ itself as \\.

With the test scaffolding now written (OK, much of it stolen from the preexisting test/builtins/test_builtins_isup.py), it'll be easier to add more cases (edge or otherwise) as we think of them.

Notes

Early 8.0.x bugfix candidate, unless someone else feels strongly about including it in 8.0.0. Feels late in the game to add One More Thing into that milestone…

First, I love that you are using the testing tools for that. I'm happy to see it works quite well. I've suggested a couple of quick changes, that makes the test less reliable on hard-coded value (the user's nick).

I think it would be valuable to add two other tests:

  1. one where there are 2 users, and one say something, the other use the replace feature
  2. one where a user replace the replaced line

And with that, I believe we would have a pretty good set of tests.

Check that correcting someone else's line works as expected, and check
that replacing an already-replaced line works as expected.

Also check that case-insensitive (i) and global (g) flags work as
expected, both separately and together.

Note: There is a glitch in formatting when the new replacement occurs
inside the previous one, since the bolding used to indicate what changed
is kept in the stored line. We might wish to fix that at some point, but
the new test correctly represents the real behavior.
Perform the replacement with an unformatted version of the substitute
string, then create a display version with bolding added only after the
matching line (if any) is found.

Updated the corresponding test case. Also renamed some local vars in the
`find` plugin file to make a bit more sense (but not too dramatic).

Points well taken about additional tests. I added a few more test cases, and also fixed another bug: the double-\x02 wrapping of replacements inside previous replacements.
