New feature open the selected text with google

lfv89 opened this issue 10 years ago · 4 comments

Hey, this plugin is almost exactly what I wanted to de a few months ago. Back than I was eager to build a plugin that would allow me to highlight some text in copy mode and then google it. This would be especially useful to debug error messages.

I was thinking that maybe tmux-open could have a O binding in order to do exactly that. What do you think? If you like the idea, maybe you could give me some directions to help me build this feature? Tks.

Hi, this shouldn't be too hard to implement.
Let's see if other users like this idea before implementing it.

Hey, @vasconcelloslf submitted a PR for this here: #5
So if you really want the feature you can grab it from his fork.
As you'll notice in the discussion in that PR we started thinking more broadly than just google search..
