wooooooooooaaaaaah!!! Can you imagine this coincidence? :D

Just a minute ago, by sheer luck, my mouse cursor happened to hover over the
[-Wunused-variable] part of GCC compiler output and showed a
https://gcc.gnu.org/... URL in a tooltip. It turns out I can click it to read
documentation about that compiler warning. What magic! And then I remembered
that I had just skimmed through this last message of yours less than a week
ago. This is so cool! I have been doing this whole computer thing for decades
and I learn that this is possible *today*??? XD

Now I have to learn how to make my own software output the correct escape
sequences! Wow!

Thanks!

cheers, josch
