patch to change auto-summary regex (878 bytes, patch)

Description Rowan Collins [IMSoP] 2004-12-03 04:10:16 UTC 
In a wonderful case of "the multiduplicitousness of life", within a couple of
hours I had cause to edit two sections which contained an equals sign ('='), and
noticed that the automatic summary was truncated at the '='. This appears to be
because of the regular expression used in EditPage.php, which terminates on any
number of '='s. Patch to follow shortly.

patch to change auto-summary regex

This changes the regex from "non-greedily look for at least one equals sign" to
"greedily look for a matching number of equals signs". This is more analagous
to what the parser does when it actually renders the headings, and means that
the heading is whatever is within the outermost matching pair of equals signs
on the line.

Oh, and $sectitle wasn't used anywhere else in the file, so I got rid of it.
