In a github table, an inline code block that contains a | adds columns - it should not

[Thraka]

When a pipe is in a table, you can escape it with a \ on github markdown. In hexo-renderer-marked this does not work. As seen below, it works as intended here. But if you copy paste that table into hexo-renderer-marked row3 cell2 will behave just like row2 cell2 without an escape.

|col1 |col2 |
|-----|-----|
|row1|`cell2`|
|row2|`this cell2 has no | escape on the pipe`|
|row3|`this cell2 has an \| escape on the pipe`|

col1	col2
row1	cell2
row2	`this cell2 has no
row3	this cell2 has an | escape on the pipe

Table syntax are not part of commonmark but an extension by marked and GFM.
Older versions of marked and GFM diverged on this, but a recent marked PR addressed the issue.

The marked demo seems to render the example in the OP the same way as GFM. Updating the dependency to marked@0.4.0 should fix the issue.

I'm not super familiar with nodejs and npm. How do I make sure I get the specific version, and how do I make sure that the renderer will use it? I tried running npm install --save marked@0.4.0 which it seemed to have updated but it didn't fix the problem. I want to make sure that I did indeed change the marked version that the renderer is using.

Thanks!

This has to be fixed in this package here, not in your app. The version range is not compatible. This is a breaking change so it would require some checks before updating it.
