Description
I'm using the Azure CLI, and one of the help outputs had this text:
jaraco.functools master $ az devops service-endpoint github create --help
Command
az devops service-endpoint github create : Create a GitHub service endpoint.
For automation, set GitHub PAT token in AZURE_DEVOPS_EXT_GITHUB_PAT environment variable.
You can learn more about this at https://aka.ms/azure-devops-cli-service-endpoint.
If I try to click on that URL, it is highlighted, but it doesn't work because the . is included in the URL. Many other systems like Slack are able to detect hyperlinks like these without including extraneous trailing characters. It would be nice if Hyper could do the same.
