Processing randomly inserts the characters '//<>//' into .pde files.

Most appropriate sub-area of Processing 4?

PDE

Processing version

4.3 / 4.3.1

Operating system

Windows/macOS

Steps to reproduce this

When i modify and save a file in processing it will randomly append the characters '//<>//' (without quotes) to random lines. These characters don't show up in the processing editor, but git detects them as modifications. They display normally in other text editors. I can remove these characters in a different text editor, but as soon as i modify and save the files in processing, the characters appear again. Sometimes on different lines, sometimes on the same lines. Some lines have multiple instances of these characters added. Over time more and more instances appear throughout my project.

What's going on there? Is this normal behaviour? How can i get rid of it?

I don't know if there is a way to reproduce it. I have removed all tools and libraries from my processing installation but it still happens.

Bắt đầu bằng cách tái hiện sự cố trong Processing PDE bằng phiên bản 4.3 hoặc 4.3.1 trên Windows hoặc macOS, sau đó so sánh tệp .pde đã lưu trong PDE với cùng tệp đó trong một trình soạn thảo văn bản khác. Xác định xem thao tác lưu có chèn các ký tự nguyên văn //\u003c\u003e// hay không và ghi lại cách tái hiện đáng tin cậy hoặc các điều kiện gây ra sự cố.
