Description
An interesting specification to add hyperlinking support directly to terminal emulators has been created, see: https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda
I'd like to use this support in a small patch I'm creating for the application alot which uses urwid as it's TUI layer.
I've created a patch for URWID to add such functionality and would love feedback on it. I'll upload the patch to a PR as soon as I've cleaned it up enough for public eyes.
Would you be interested in such a patch?
