 Good find!

[SLUG] double-click word selection regex for xterm?

2007-08-17 Thread Zenaan Harkness
The only thing I miss from gnome-terminal is its word-selection regex -
double click selects a full package name for example, whereas xterm,
when I double click, the word boundary appears to be the dashes in the
package name, which isn't so useful.

Thanks in advance
Zen

Why not stick with gnome-terminal? You get dingus clicking too!

This reminds me of a related question I have...

In gnome-terminal email addresses get underlined when you hover over
them (allowing you to right click and copy and paste), but only if the
email address is all lower case.

How to config this so it works for mixed case email adddresses eg
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

So, rather than pimping  my terminal of choice, I'm going to answer
the question that was actually asked.

XTerm*charClass is what you need to set in your .Xdefaults file.
