Phone numbers recognition

Opened this issue · 0 comments

From andré's report:

Whenever I try to edit a note with a few sequential digits, omni tries to DIAL like it is a phone number. I can't escape this without deleting all the text around the series of digits. Even when the offending text is removed, Omni often remembers the text in proximity. I usually have to delete and retype a fairly large area around the digits. If I put a dot (.) in a series of text, omni treats it like a url, even if they are digits in the text on each side. I haven't seen @ being interpreted as an email adresse, probably since I rarely use @ with omni. To me, just an option to escape automatic interpretation would be sufficient. For urls/emails, testing for correct format would help also, since "aaaa.23" would never be a valid url. Part of the problem is that to type quickly on a phone, "." is readily available but not other special characters.

It seems that every number longer than 5 digits is recognized as a phone number.
