Fails to understand URL containing a "+"

Unread post by Haines » 2019-02-13, 13:13

I'm running Basilisk. I find that if I paste a URL that my email utility (mutt) wrapped (by adding a "+" at the end of the line) Basilisk cannot follow the link. I find that I have to delete the "+" and retype the characters that had followed it.

Sounds like Mutt is giving the browser a bad URL. If you give any browser an incomplete or bad URL, it will never be able to follow it. I'd be surprised if this worked in any browser, assuming I'm understanding the problem correctly.
