Hey Oscar, thanks for the contribution. Can you add a test or two that shows URLs that should be linked which currently aren't? |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Just fyi, the ^ character doesn't need to be escaped in a regular expression character class unless it is the first character in the character class

Just added the tests |

Hey @OscarBataille. Sorry for the late reply on this! Thanks for the tests so far. Can you add just a couple tests in autolinker.spec.ts too which check the full link generation? Btw, do you have a real URL where Thanks, |

Hey @gregjacobs , Indeed https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt says that ^ is an unsafe character. Is there already some way to encode URL characters or does it need to be implemented ? I don't have access to a public URL where this character is used because we encountered the problem on a internal URL. Thanks, |
