Description

https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_38#_link-protection-for-outgoing-links

I clicked unwanted and maybe-harmful links after processing its URLs by sed and grep.
VSCode, the most famous text editor developed by Microsoft, prevents opening untrusted URLs without asking.
This feature prevents us from opening harmful websites by clicking strings representing URLs and domains while and after handling data containing them.

Research direction

No repository files or tests are named; start with the linked VS Code link-protection specification, then trace Hyper's handling of clicked URL and domain strings. Done means untrusted links found in terminal data require confirmation before opening.
