Why does it not ask the terminfo, instead of only disabling this for "dumb"? It should disable it for *most* terminals! The one I care about most, which caused me to open PR93168, is TERM=screen (which is what tmux uses), so at least exclude that one? And doing all this beeping and screen-corrupting stuff for everything that sets TERM=xterm is a bad idea imnsho. > Since I have seen much garbage from the URLs in the xfce4-terminal 0.6.3 > admittedly an old Ubuntu installation, but still in LTS status, > and no attempt from the xfc4-terminal to _ever_ implement URLs, This is true for *most* terminal emulators. I have nothing against this feature, I just wish it wouldn't annoy me on pretty much every system I use. None of which use "TERM=dumb", but none of which use "TERM=fancy-pants-term-v42" either. (Did anyone ever use "dumb", anyway?) Segher
