Hi!
Here are two nice ideas for URL handling:
1) Colorize URLs in the pager:
color body magenta default '(((ftp|http|https)|mailto)[.:][^
>"]*|www.[-a-z_0-9/.?=&,:]+)[^ .,;>">():]'
2) start netscape on URL with mouse usage:
macro pager \eh '!netscape-remote h'
'netscape-remote' is a shell script:
-----------------------------------------------------
#/bin/csh -f
netscape -noraise -remote 'OpenURL('$1',new-window)'
-----------------------------------------------------
The usage is:
1. Mark URL to view with left mouse button
2. Press ESC
3. Press middle mouse button
4. Press Enter
For me this is a much better handling than using urlview.
My problem with urlview is, that it only extracts a list of
URLs, but not the text belonging to the URL.
Reading a mail including several URLs one gets lost with urlview.
Best regards,
Daniel.
