[FEAT] Make link clickable/openable

sathishmanohar opened this issue a year ago · comments

I have a link in a description. When I click on the link I expect the link to open in my default browser but as of now nothing is happening.

The link is detected and underlined. The cursor changes to link click cursor but on click nothing happens.

Hmmm... Didn't add the feature but can do

Sounds more like an issue with the terminal. I use Konsole by KDE and I have the option to click links when holding CTRL.

I confirm ctrl+click works on a few terminals and it doesn't work on kitty. Is there a way to make the behavior more uniform/predictable across terminals.

Yes If I can use a proper regex to determine URLs then I make it clickable I suppose :D

Try just clicking it instead of pressing ctrl. I just tested on my pc and urls open if i just click.... however it doesnt if i alongside press ctrl

Edit: Turns out you need to add https:// or http:// as a prefix to your url, otherwise it doesnt open.
