Lister feature request: right click extensions

Post by *Maxwish »

Feature request for Lister:
Currently using the right mouse button in Lister only gives option "copy as text". I would like to see some more options.

One option I would really like is something like an "Open as URL" extension. That will send the selected text to the URL bar of my default browser.

Why ?
Because often in eg. readme.txt a reference is made to http://www.wepage.com or www.webpage.com. It would be nice if I could select it and choose this "Open as URL" option and it would open an instance of my browser with the selected text in the URL bar. This way I would save myself having to copy the url, open a browser window and paste.
