To restore the pre-wily behaviour, you need to use dconf, as per: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730632#c33
Note that the use of colons there is /crazy/. Yes, there is :/: in there. 1) edit -> profile preferences -> the General tab on your profile has its Profile ID, e.g. b1dcc9dd-5262-4d8d-a863-c897e6d979b9 2) check you've got the syntax right with: $ dconf list /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:b1dcc9dd-5262-4d8d-a863-c897e6d979b9/ foreground-color visible-name palette use-system-font ... If it returns nothing, you've got it wrong; try again. 3) dconf write /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:b1dcc9dd-5262-4d8d-a863-c897e6d979b9 /word-char-exceptions '@ms "-,.;/?%&#_=+@~ยท:"' ... specifically, this has ":" in, which makes it select URLs like I expect. (http://example.com doesn't select "//example.com"). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1401207 Title: No 'Select-by-word characters' property To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1401207/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
