Subject: bug#5329: goto-address regular expression
Date: Wed, 6 Jan 2010 14:43:44 +0000

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:




The goto-address minor-mode does not match the urls of the emacs official
online documentation, because they use parentesis!
For example, here it only matches until the "?"
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/info2www?(elisp)Using%20Interactive

I tried to fix the regex
(setq goto-address-url-regexp
  (concat "\\b\\(s?https?\\|ftp\\|file\\|gopher\\|news\\|"
	  "telnet\\|wais\\):\\(//[-a-zA-Z0-9_.]+:"
	  "[0-9]*\\)?[-a-zA-Z0-9_=?#$@~`%&*+|\\/.,()]*"
	  "[-a-zA-Z0-9_=#$@~`%&*+|\\/()]"))

and now it displays well but when I click a url, it seems it is still
using the old regex
