Escaping problem when renaming jinja template from .htm to .jinja

[BobSquarePants]

Hi everyone,

I don't know if the following is a unexpected behavior, so I wanted your advice before posting as an Issues.

My Jinja template file had extension .htm and everything was working smoothly.
But I change them to .jinja to directly have the right syntax color in my editor.

and weirdly changing the file extension mess it up when escaping characters more info --> brython-dev/brython#2313

Flask 2.2.2
Jinja2 3.1.2

Cheers

I'd say that this is expected and documented behavior https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/templating/

Jinja Setup
Unless customized, Jinja2 is configured by Flask as follows:

• autoescaping is enabled for all templates ending in .html, .htm, .xml, .xhtml, as well as .svg when using render_template().

you should configure your editor to applying jinja highlighting for .html files. at least in vscode it's really easy to do that
