1) We want to create a script that crawls a mantisbt issue 2) finds an attached .patch file 3) and either downloads it or displays it in RAW format (pure text) so it can be then piped in to a diff to automatically patch a project's trunk Is this possible? Also, Is it possible to do step 2 and 3 via ...

Thanks! Marked as 'Solved'

When attaching .diff or .patch to a mantisbt report one can click on 'view' and observe the file w/out needing to d/l it. How can that functionality be extended to another extension, say .log for example ?

Yea.. see if I take workaround #1 then all previous issues that use that formatting break.
Attaching traces as texts is not ideal, but I see the ingenuity in it.

I think the <nolink> solution is the best one. Will it also not interpret html tags?

You can just deactivate the whole special treatment for ~ and # by using the configuration page of the MantisCoreFormatting plugin.

Yea.. that's not the answer I was hoping for.
What are other workarounds ?

What is the tag that needs to be put around a block of code in a mantis comment so it won't interpret html tags or special chars like ~ or #

EDIT: Example, if someone wants to add a backtrace and not have all the strings prepended with '#' be interpreted as an mantisbt issue number

Thanks. You can mark this as solved.
