Public bug reported:

Mudlet 2.1 for windows in Window 7 professional 64bit

when using cinsertText() (and probably insertText() too) all simple highlights (simple meaning triggers with the option "highlight" ticked and not by selectString highlighting) get displaced/moved back by the string length of what is inserted.
In the attachment you can see a rune description being inserted "(raido: return location)", "Babel" being highlighted by selectString and the rest of the highlights being off place. What was supposed to be highlighted: "gold" instead of "hip", "Ashtan" instead of "a smi", "east" instead of "mana" and "monolith" instead of "of a sm".
