I don't know where this (possibly related) bug belongs: When hovering over multi-line URLs in the output of the following program, Terminal highlights the whole URL and loads it properly in the browser. ./filterous.py If I pipe the result through `more`, it only highlights single lines: ./filterous.py all.xml | more -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 238463] Re: URL handling in gnome-terminal
Same problem with ubuntu 9.04. @Pedro: Please reopen this bug. The upstream bug was closed as wontfix because it is the CORRECT behavior to include the next line! This bug here describes that the next line is NOT included. The problem occurs when reading email with mutt and its internal pager in the terminal. If I pipe the same email from mutt to less, the complete multiline URLs get recognized. If I pipe it to more only the the first line of the URLs gets recognized by the URL catcher. I didn't test further but my guess is that is has indeed to do with ncurses. -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

If you need an upstream bug to follow, I guess it would be this one here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469862 Though I wonder how the kde guys do it. In konsole (on debian lenny) the link recognition works even with mutt.

[Bug 238463] Re: URL handling in gnome-terminal
this is a wontfix bug, upstream comment: I do not think this is solvable. The current behaviour is useful when the URL does continue in the next line (because long URLs tend to do that) and there is no way of knowing whether the first char in the next line is part or not of the URL (because URL are rather arbitrary after the u...@passs:host:port part, cf. http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc2068.html#sec-3.2.1 for http urls and http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc1738.html for the general mess) ** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Won't Fix -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 238463] Re: URL handling in gnome-terminal
I also just upgraded from Dapper to Hardy and am having this problem in mutt. It looks like someone fixed the corner case (where the url ended on the last character of the line) and broke the much more likely case where urls are longer than one line and don't end exactly at a line boundary. I just looked at 10 emails in mutt on a gnome-terminal on a Dapper system. Long urls were all handled properly even when I adjusted the screen size so the last character of a multline url was the last character of a line. Maybe it's just my emails, but I couldn't trigger the corner case that apparently prompted the change. The urls in those emails would open firefox on the right page in Dapper, but wouldn't work in Hardy unless I made the terminal wide enough (wider than the screen) to get the whole url on a single line. -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 238463] Re: URL handling in gnome-terminal
I also just upgraded from Dapper to Hardy, and am experiencing this. Long URLs only get their first line recognized. Oddly, sometimes it works fine. If I paste a long URL into vi or the command line, the whole thing is recognized. If I cat a file with a long URL, the whole thing is recognized. But viewing an email message within mutt, it is not. (Could it have something to do with curses, or an application doing a single write(2) containing the whole URL?) I think it's better to err on the side of recognizing too much, since it's more rare for a URL to end exactly at a line boundary than it is for one to be arbitrarily longer. -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 238463] Re: URL handling in gnome-terminal
That upstream bug is actually about the URL recognition code catching *too much* text. It looks like the current behavior is broken as designed -- since it's difficult (perhaps impossible) to tell the difference between a continued URL and unrelated text on the next line, gnome-terminal only considers the first line's worth as part of the URL. I'd like the opposite behavior (grab text until space or tab), but I can see how it would be reasonable to prefer the current behavior. -- URL handling in gnome-terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238463 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
