Support hyperlink ansi escapes in the integrated terminal #39278

Closed

Description

Cross-posting from xterm.js for discovery. Hope that's ok.

Terminal emulators are starting to support hyperlinks. While many terminals have long detected URL's and linkified them, allowing you to Command-Click or Control-Click them to open a browser, you were forced to print the long unsightly URL's on the screen. As of spring 2017 a few terminals began supporting HTML like links, where the link text and destination could be specified separately.

Example from iTerm2 3.1:
