    I tested it. Everything comes through fine except &param2. I can’t get it to show even if wrapped in a comment.

    More good news is that the new parser is also insensitive to whitespace around the equals signs.

    I did see some weirdness in the editor though. After saving and reloading the document, the snippet call is rendered as:

    [[Foo?
  &parents=`1,2,3,4`
  ¶m = `Look at the cool extra-special characters & stuff = niceness, eh?`
  ¶m2 = `[[another?snippet=`even with cached inside cached`]]`
  & question = `for Jason: will this line work?`
]]


    This happens with or without the space around the equals signs.

    In spite of this, the call still works! Is this from "param" being a reserved word?

    &myparam doesn’t get transformed.

      Did you write a snippet called another that takes a parameter called snippet?

      That’s very odd; by editor, you do mean TinyMCE and not just in the plain textarea, correct?

        No, not TinyMCE . . . Editor to use: none.

        It’s definitely the word "para" (not "param" as I thought earlier) because &parameter2 gets transormed into ¶meter2
