Editing map literal with parinfer

[stijnopheide]

In an editor window (in the REPL window this works correctly), trying to create a map literal behaves oddly:

{:a|}

pressing space here always removes the space. So in order to add a value after the key, you have to go through this sequence:

{:a:b|} => {:a|:b} => {:a |:b}

This behaviour disappears when restarting IntelliJ.

Is it possible that you had the same file open in two editor tabs, for example after splitting it? That exhibits behaviour like this due to the multiple carets.

Yes, probably.
