Control: tags -1 + moreinfo

Hello Harald,

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8.1-2
Severity: wishlist

Running aptitude in an xterm I'd love to copy the Homepage
URL into the Xselection buffer to make it available to other
XWindow applications (e.g. Firefox, to paste it into an EMail,
etc.).

Currently I have to either manually type in the URL, leave
aptitude with ^C to make selecting text work, or to avoid
aptitude completely. The description, maintainer EMail
address and other text cannot be selected by the left button,
either. Surely this could be improved.

So is the solution Shift + Mouse Select satisfactory?

I am marking this as +moreinfo in the meantime.

And frankly I'd leave the bug open in the case that it's useful for
other people who find the same problem (maybe they want to submit a bug
report and see the solution), but I don't think that this is going to be
implemented in other way at least in the near future.


Cheers.
