URL hyperlinking #132

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I would be very nice to have an URL hyperlinking feature as in PuTTY Tray
(http://haanstra.eu/putty/).

Implemented on svn trunk. Here's a snapshot for Cygwin 1.7:

It won't be in 0.5.1 though, because it needs more testing.

ps: You need to hold Ctrl while left-clicking. It will open files and 
directories
too, by simply passing everything to /bin/cygstart.

That was fast. Thanks, thats really nifty!

Any chance that one can specify their own regexp and browser/application (like 
in
PuTTY Tray)?

Sorry for the late reply.

Mintty uses cygstart for URLs as well, hence whatever is set as the default 
Windows
browser will be used. I'm not keen on the regexp option either, because it'd be
useful to only a small minority of users and I'm trying to keep UI complexity 
down.
I'd rather make sure the default functionality is right.

Just wanted to say that i have no need for the regexp option anymore.

I didn't know that i can just select text and right-click/open. That works fine 
with
links with spaces or crude protocols (txmt://open/?url=file://...). :)

Ah, I'd smuggled that one into the beta4. Thanks for the feedback!

Underlining would take quite a lot of work and I'm not convinced that it's
worthwhile. Please enter a separate issue for it.
