Bug ID: 399810
Summary: URL recognition + underline on hover + clickable
Product: kate
Version: 18.08.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: codestr...@posteo.org
Target Milestone: ---
Would it be feasible to write a plugin that:
1) Scans for URLs in the current view
2) Underlines them on mouse hover; only on hover so that the general text
picture is not disturbed
3) Shows a little popup menu (or make it (Ctrl+)clickable or add a context
menu) to open the URL with the default handler (and/or copy it to the
clipboard).
Similar to how Konsole is handling URLs.
As an optional bonus, it might be cool if there was a tooltip that shows actual
html title if the URL points to a web page; e.g. if there is a link to a
Bugzilla bug or a Phabricator page, one could see the bug description or
Differential title at one glance without opening the browser.
