[serferdinand2]

Exapmple

Code below:

p Please click 
        a(example.com) here
        |  to go to our link.

changes upon running prettier to :

p Please click
      a(example.com) here
       | to go to our link.

The extra space just after the 'click' and after the pipe symbol is removed and the result is:

Please clickhereto go to our link.

And it should be:

I think you are running into this: https://pugjs.org/language/plain-text.html#not-recommended
I suggest to rewrite your pug code to what is recommended: https://pugjs.org/language/plain-text.html#recommended-solutions

Please close this issue if that solved your problem, otherwise let me know why this couldn't help.

@Shinigami92 Isn't the the point of Prettier, to make your code conform to best practices? Feels like this is something that should be fixed with this extension.

[Shinigami92]

I agree to some point, but it could be that the lexer behind could return totally different result of tokens 🤔
Would someone of you want to try that out with writing a test in the tests/issues folder and open a PR for it?

[jwerre]

Ya, I can do that

[jwerre]

Ok.. I made the test. I'll let you all figure out how to pass them. Good luck :)
