Package: xterm Version: 271-1 Severity: wishlist xterm should have a way to run a user-specified shell command on some event. For instance, xterm could define a new action run-command(command [, ...?]). The command would get context information, either as an argument or in standard input, such as what is under the mouse pointer (so that the user doesn't need to make a selection first).
The context could be some string (possibly including newline characters) matching a user-specified regexp; that would be sufficient for URL's. But getting color/attribute information too might also be useful. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.13-14 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.7-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.9-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libutempter0 1.1.5-4 A privileged helper for utmp/wtmp ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-1 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.9-2 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxft2 2.2.0-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxt6 1:1.1.1-2 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xbitmaps 1.1.1-1 Base X bitmaps Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii x11-utils 7.6+3 X11 utilities Versions of packages xterm suggests: pn xfonts-cyrillic <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
