Original Pull Request: https://github.com/xoofx/markdig/pull/56

State: closed
Merged: Yes

When you have multiple, similar (when an abbreviation is a substring of another abbreviation) abbreviations then only the first abbreviation will be applied.
For example:

*[1A]: First
*[1A1]: Second
*[1A2]: Third
We can abbreviate 1A, 1A1 and 1A2!

should result in:

<p>We can abbreviate <abbr title="First">1A</abbr>, <abbr title="Second">1A1</abbr> and <abbr title="Third">1A2</abbr>!</p>

but instead we get:

<p>We can abbreviate <abbr title="First">1A</abbr>, 1A1 and 1A2!</p>
