I don't really know about about html and slrn since I don't see much of
it but links in a terminal application is usually something for the
terminal to handle. I run Gnus on a remote machine and use a local
terminal for display, Konsole in Linux and mintty in Windows. In both of
those terminals URLs are opened with a right click on the link and
selecting open link from the menu that pops up.

That is correct and the way slrn works. You set browser and/or guibrowser options in .slrnrc. With those set, SHIFT-G will troll an open message for web addresses, and you use up and down arrow to select the link you want from the generated list. Then it launches the browser you configured.

Getting the escaping, path, and syntax of the browser setting correct was a pain, but after that it worked great.

That said, I got tired of the inability to display most special characters correctly (slrn could only do as well the cmd.exe), and have switched to Thunderbird.
