<p><app>Terminal</app> parses the terminal output and automatically detects
|
|
snippets of text that are web addresses or email addresses. Web and email
|
|
addresses are automatically highlighted when you point your cursor to the
|
|
text, indicating that the link can be opened in an application.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, you may see <output>http://www.gnome.org</output> or
|
|
<output>username@example.com</output> generated as a part of terminal output by
|
|
programs such as <app>wget</app> or <app>curl</app>.</p>
