I was testing out some basic equalities in the console and found out that, everytime a line must display < followed by an alphabetical caracters, the displayed line is truncated from there.

For example this is what I get when I ask the console (5 or "abc :


> (5
< false

> "abc
< abc

< followed by numbers, white spaces or other special characters will work properly. Accentuated caracters count as special caracters.
> (5<6)
< true

> "abc< def"
< abc< def

> "abc<é"
< abc<é

The inputs commands don't seem to be misinterpreted, it's only a visual glitch.

@estecka This is intended so a player can use HTML tags in his console messages.

Didn't know it was possible to use HTML in the console, that seems neat. (Is there a list of what we can and can't use ?)

However I believe it would still be possible to detect at least uncomplete tag and limit this phenomenon. (A < without a > is nothing of a tag.)

the client is just a browser, and your message is simply attached without being processed by the server. you can do everything if you want .. including executing javascript by using script tags.
