Selecting prev/next in cmdline removes line range markers (<,>)

Make sure you have done the following

• Updated to the latest version of blink.cmp
• Searched for existing issues and documentation (try <C-k> on https://cmp.saghen.dev)

Bug Description

After visually selecting some lines and trying to type a command, for example :<,>s/foo/bar/ (<,> is automatically added by neovim as the selection range markers), when you just finished typing s and press <Up> (binded to "select_prev" when using enter preset), the completion menu will erase the <,> markers. The completion only works as intended if there is a space before s, for example: :<,> s/foo/bar/. Similar behaviour was observed when manually typing the line ranges, like :3,5s/foo/bar/ won't work, but :3,5 s/foo/bar/ will.

      config = function(_, opts)

I've submitted a fix for this issue in PR #1155 .

Hi, thanks for the fix! It works for visual range selection (:'<,'>), but for line number ranges (:3,5) it doesn't seem to be working. Is it possible to fix this as well?

Thank you for working on the fix!!!
I think the parsing has to be extended for a general list of special characters as well. doing :echo &buf<completion_key> inserts the selection and removes &
