quickselect: add QuickSelectArgs and helpers for opening urls This commit expands quick select mode so that you can trigger it with distinct sets of patterns (eg: urls on one key assignment, hashes on a different key assignment), different alphabets, and lastly, the option to perform a different action from the default copy action. You can pair this with `action_callback` to run lua code to do something with the selected text. This commit also adds `wezterm.open_with`, a helper function for opening documents/URLs. refs: #846 refs: #1362 2021-12-23 20:55:44 +03:00
