+  0.15  2026-02-15 MANWAR
+        - Issue #23: Fixed a bug in testDetectSpaces() method in Template.pm
+          The regex /^([\\040|\\t]+)/ was incorrectly matching literal pipe
+          characters '|' in addition to spaces and tabs. Changed to
+          /^([\040\t]+)/ to correctly match only spaces (octal 040) and tabs.
+          This improves number highlighting in Perl and other languages that
+          use this method for whitespace detection.
+        - Updated test suite expected output files to match the corrected
+          highlighting behaviour
