How to modify physical display size in EDID

Following method describes how to fix EDID display size information of your monitor if it's wrong (some of Samsung's monitors report incorrect size when connected over HDMI, for example). It assumes that your monitor is connected to HDMI1 port (HDMI-A-1 is full kernel address).

I used following tools:

• Bless
• edid-decode-git
• edid-rw (I used parts of this script for edid-checksum.py)
• read-edid (parse-edid, get-edid)

Determinant

#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/Xutil.h>
#include <X11/Xos.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <assert.h>

Display *dpy;
Window win;

Hyperlinks (a.k.a. HTML-like anchors) in terminal emulators

[ Update 2020-05-31: I won't be maintaining this page or responding to comments anymore (except for perhaps a few exceptional occasions). ]

---

Most of the terminal emulators auto-detect when a URL appears onscreen and allow to conveniently open them (e.g. via Ctrl+click or Cmd+click, or the right click menu).

It was, however, not possible until now for arbitrary text to point to URLs, just as on webpages.
