Description
Current behavior
- Open the terminal
- Cat a file that contains a URL so it appears as a clickable link
- Highlight the URL using a click-drag approach (i.e., start just past the right side of the URL, click, then begin highlighting to the left)
- Note that the cursor remains a "finger" the entire time.
- When you reach the beginning of the URL, release the mouse button
- The link will activate and open in the default browser.
Expected behavior
- Open the terminal
- Cat a file that contains a URL so it appears as a clickable link
- Highlight the URL using a click-drag approach (i.e., start just past the right side of the URL, click, then begin highlighting to the left)
- The cursor should change to an I-beam selector
- When you reach the beginning of the URL, release the mouse button
- The URL is highlighted, but no click event is processed
The current behavior can be avoided by:
- Highlighting past the left border of the window so the cursor turns back into an arrow.
- Initially positioning the mouse cursor to the right of the URL link and triple-clicking to select the entire line.
Ideally, there would also be a simple setting to completely disable clickable URLs, as mentioned in issue #463, but using click-drag selection should still prevent a click event.
