v3.1.2 - Fix code block comments rendered as headings

Bug Fixes

• Fixed # comments inside fenced code blocks being rendered as <h1> headings: Python-style comments such as # ... existing code ... inside a python block were incorrectly converted to heading elements in the teleprompter view. The parser now protects fenced code block content with a placeholder before any other parsers run, so all syntax inside code blocks is preserved as literal text.
• Removed stale dead-code path in the table parser that attempted to detect <pre> HTML tags—these are now always placeholders before the table parser runs.
• Renamed internal placeholders for clarity: fenced code blocks use MARKDOWN-BLOCK-CODE-N and table-cell inline code uses MARKDOWN-CELL-CODE-N.

Test Coverage

• Added 4 new unit tests in the Code block comment protection suite covering all markdown syntax variants inside code blocks.

v3.0.4 - Fix literal asterisk rendering in teleprompter

What's Changed

🛠 Fixes

• Fixed a bug where asterisks used as literal characters (e.g. in multiplication expressions like 5 * 3 = 15 * 2) were incorrectly rendered as italic text in CueMode teleprompter view.
• Updated italic detection regex to match CommonMark spec: the opening * must be immediately followed by a non-whitespace character, and the closing * must be immediately preceded by a non-whitespace character.
• Added 8 regression tests covering space-padded asterisks, mixed literal/italic content, and single unmatched asterisks.

Full Changelog: v3.0.3...v3.0.4

v3.0.3

CueMode 3.0.3

This patch release fixes a markdown parsing edge case in CueMode's teleprompter rendering.

Fixes

• Preserved snake_case identifiers such as light_is_on in markdown mode instead of misinterpreting underscore-delimited segments as italic emphasis.
• Tightened underscore emphasis parsing without changing normal markdown emphasis behavior.
• Added regression coverage in both the markdown parser and rendered-content pipeline.

Validation

• npm run docs:check
• npm run test
• npm run package

Notes

• No breaking changes.
• VS Code Marketplace version 3.0.3 has been published.

v3.0.2

Highlights

• Added Teleprompter Mode (Cursor Position) for reopening CueMode around the current editor cursor.
• Improved double-click return-to-editor accuracy for markdown-heavy content, repeated terms, and Chinese text.
• Switched CueMode source sync to lightweight incremental webview updates and deferred hidden-tab refreshes to reduce typing lag.

Verification

• Documentation checks passed.
• Extension integration tests passed (188 passing).
• VS Code Marketplace extension published as luckyXmobile.cuemode v3.0.2.
