Hello Cameron, Nice idea! And I think, that I can even make the key-binding dependent on the window-title in fvwm. I only need to install xclip. It's still not the very ergonomic pine-like behaviour, but I'll give it a try. Here are the problems that I have with the other methods: - urlview make a list with url and the context is lost, furthermore urls are corrupted: "item=123" gets "item=3D123" - w3m and lynx seem to need real html, so I need to embed every url in a <a></a> tag with a filter, besides they are external pagers so the nice coloring of quoted text gets lost Does it make sense to fill in a feature request for cycling through urls in the message and firing up an external browser with the currently highlighted url?
