I don't see how this could happen unless you combined the action with some pasting (such as bracketed-paste). xterm's formatting of the string is shell-agnostic, and the exec'd "browser" command would only depend on what the formatted URL looked like. In either case, steps-to-reproduce seem obscure. -- Thomas E. Dickey <dic...@invisible-island.net> https://invisible-island.net ftp://ftp.invisible-island.net
