[Pmwiki-users] Possible Bug (While editing PmWiki.Install)

Another follow up to my previous posts (see original message below):

This post is mainly for information purposes since I don't think this bug has affected anybody but me, so unless you're really bored, you can skip this post.

I figured out my webserver doesn't appreciate the text .htaccess  in the lines (below) when I try to load and change the PmWiki.Install document (locally on my box).  If I change .htaccess to htaccess (without the dot) it works fine. 

If that wasn't wierd enough .. I can put .htaccess by itself, or with a bunch of other words, like:

Apache, pmwiki.php and .htaccess along with httpd.conf 

and I have no problems with that.  It's just particular to the string of text (below).

I'm using latest version of OmniSecure on WinXP box.

  Follow up to:  Possible Bug (While editing PmWiki.Install)

  I went through the whole page deleting line by line, paragraph by paragraph and checking to see when it saved properly, and when it didn't. 

  I narrowed it down to these two lines of text that is causing the problem.

  Under Installation Point Number #4:

  to either the @@.htaccess@@ file in the directory containing @@pmwiki.php@@ or the server's @@httpd.conf@@ file. If changing the @@httpd.conf@@ file, don't forget to restart Apache to have the change take effect.

  What makes the problem weirder is, if I paste only the first part:

  to either the @@.htaccess@@ file in the directory containing @@pmwiki.php@@ or the server's @@httpd.conf@@ 

  It works.

  and if I paste only the second part:

  file. If changing the @@httpd.conf@@ file, don't forget to restart Apache to have the change take effect.

  It also works.

  It's when I paste them together (as above), then it doesn't work.   Is anybody else able to duplicate this problem?  Any ideas?
