Sounds to me like it's a shortcoming of the exporter then, to not remove the escape characters as appropriate. Though one would think others would've run into this issue and fixed it. Or perhaps you're missing some other prevalent alternative?

The highlighting corrects for me once I "escape" the "~300".

You didn't understand me. The highlighting also disappears if you "escape" with %

  %~300

Or the character A:

  A~300

		Isn't the aim to have the highlighting only apply to `~systemctl start fnord~`, and not have whatever you used to escape the "~300" appear in an export? Highlighting and exporting are 2 pretty distinct functions.
