gnome-terminal dingus bug & patch

[John B Tunison <jtunison andrew cmu edu>]

In gnome-core at gnome-terminal/gnome-terminal.c:2174, the match regex for
urls is not quite correct -- it doesn't understand escape sequences.  So
urls like:

http://www.runhigh.com/Misc%20Pages/RHEntry.html

don't get highlighted correctly.  The fix is to change the line to read:

zvt_term_match_add( ZVT_TERM(term),
"(((news|telnet|nttp|file|http|ftp|https)://)|(www|ftp))[-A-Za-z0-9\\.]+(:[0-9]*)?/[-A-Za-z0-9_\\$\\.\\+\\!\\*\\(\\),;:@&=\\?/~\\#\\%]*[^]'\\.}>\\)
,\\\"]", VTATTR_UNDERLINE, "full url");

(Note the added '\\%'.)  

First I sent the patch to jacob helixcode com, and then when he didn't
respond to jirka 5z com   It's been a few weeks now -- am I sending the
patch to the wrong people?  Should I keep working my way through
MAINTAINERS?

Heh, maybe Evolution is eating everyone's mail.  :)
