Clickable URLs?
by Jason Stubbs on Monday 19/Mar/2007, @20:46

I'm hoping that there is some config option for this that I've just missed, but I think parsing and making URL-like text clickable would be a great addition. Manually selecting the URL and using Klipper's popup to open is not too much hassle but is not exactly easy either... Hmm.. Wondering about word-based selection (rather than character-based selection) I just found that double clicking on a URL will select it. With my setting of Klipper to "ignore selections", I still need to manually copy it though...

This features is asked for so much, I can hardly believe they won't implement it for KDE 4 ;-)

Yeah, I remember frustration at submitting a feature request to bugs.kde.org for this feature, the responce was: 'use actions in klipper'
I'm not a big fan of actions in klipper, I just want links I can click ;-)
