Use PangoLogAttr to detect word break (5.75 KB, patch)
2002-12-04 20:48 UTC, Hidetoshi Tajima 		none Details | Review

Description Hidetoshi Tajima 2002-12-02 18:48:32 UTC 
When double clicking in a GNOME terminal window a "word" should be
selected. The default is ASCII letters and a few more ASCII characters.

But, non-ASCII characters cannot be selected. To reproduce, use menu to
access the current profile and 
change the list of character to be selected as a "word" 
to whatever some non ASCII characters are included.

For example,
  A-Za-z0-9,./?%?:_$¡-÷åäöÅÄÖ

Neither specifying characters separately åäöÅÄÖ nor as a range "¡-÷" does
work. Adding ASCII characters like $ in example above works.

commit a patch to the HEAD.

	* libzvt/libzvt.h:
	#Fix 100155: Use PangoLogAttr to detect word break.
	This change obsoletes current terminal-profile's word character
	user setting, although it's consistent way to handle word break
	which are done by other gtk+ applications like gedit.

Comments from Havoc in the bug 100487 is rational.
