When editing a text file, it would be nice if the user highlights a URL and right click if there there was an option there to open the URL in the default browser e.g suppose the text file contained http://www.google.com you would highlight the entire URL and then right click on it, on the popup menu that comes up there should be an option to 'open the url in the default browser'
Dear user, this wish list item is now closed, as it wasn't touched in the last year and no contributor stepped up to implement it. The Kate/KTextEditor team is small and we can just try to keep up with fixing bugs. Therefore wishes that show no activity for a years or more will be closed from now on to keep at least a bit overview about 'current' wishs of the users. If you want your feature to be implemented, please step up to provide some patch for it. If you think it is really needed, you can reopen your request, but keep in mind, if no new good arguments are made and no people get attracted to help out to implement it, it will expire in a year again. We have a nice website https://kate-editor.org that provides all the information needed to contribute, please make use of it. Patches can be handed in via https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/ Greetings Christoph Cullmann
