  • Parser: bugs in and refactors of the isolated parser combinator micro-library,parser.js, in generality as a parser combinator library, ignoring the specifics of LaTeX parsing

  • LatexCommandInput: bugs inLatexCommandInput
  • Text: bugs with text "mode", inTextBlock andRootTextBlock
  • Visual: visual rather than behavioral bugs; no exceptions thrown, tree still well-formed; especially if a purely cosmetic issue, or a CSS-only fix
• Closed Issues Only
  • Black,IgnoreMe: (in the actual issues list, extra gray for some reason) created by mistake, pretend deleted. There should be no other labels, so as not to affect label statistics
  • Yellow,Archived: don't want to delete the branch and lose the commits/code/work forever, don't want to clutter up the branches list, so PR just to close it and delete the branch,they keep around a "Restore" button accessible from the closed PR

The statistics by topic are actually quite interesting, for example, it's unsurprising thatKey Events clocked in a solid 18 issues, and unsurprising thatText would also have many issues, but I thought, "no way it would have as many as the shitshowKey Events was!" Well, I thought wrong:Text has 22 issues and climbing. - @laughinghan, 2013/4/19
