I have been trying to fix the linkify bug in the auto_format section.

I think that all that needs to be done is to change

Line 868 of Utility.pm
From
s#([^\x00]|^)($url_regex)(?=[.!?_*=]?[\s\n<()\[\]{}\x01\x02]|$)#$1<a href="$2">$2</a>#gmio;

To 
s#([^\x00]|^)($url_regex)(?=[.!?_*=](?!>)?[\s\n<()\[\]{}\x01\x02]|$)#$1<a href="$2">$2</a>#gmio;

Adding in a (?!>) to look-ahead and make sure you don't include any strings with a > in. Shouldn't be a problem for normal urls that need linkifying as they shouldn't have > in.

I havn't got a scoop install, so this is tested on a testbed, so developers beware. I am not on the mailing list either, as I only intend to patch bugs I come across.

HTH
