gnome-terminal highlight an URL (shown in the terminal as underlined text). The problem is that it does not do this correctly in case URL has % symbol in it. If you type in prompt http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=aaa and move mouse to this line the entire URL will be highlighted but if you type http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=aaa%60&a=b&c=d the symbols after % are just ignored, what is incorrect. % is a standard way to encode symbols in URL. Another thing, the URL is shown as it possible to click on it, but if I click nothing happens. Should a web browser be started?
Probably we just need to add % to the regular expression used to parse URLs in gnome-terminal.c. You should be able to right-click on a URL to open it.
A plain rightclick doesn't always work, but ctrl+rightclick does.
This has since been fixed.
