It seems there is a class specifically for this in WxWidgets, called 
TextUrlEvent, which includes methods for retrieving the URL.

Unfortunately, it seems completely undocumented in the 2.6.3 docs for 
either TextCtrl or CommandEvent, so we''ve missed it.

I''ve had a look at the WxWidgets include files, and I think it should
be
straightforward to add. I''ve added it to the tracker and should be able
to do this for our next release (0.0.39)

Thanks for the report
alex

Great, thanks for that.

I was just about to ask when you were planning to add HtmlWindow support, 
but I just upgraded to 0.0.38 and noticed that you''ve already done it
;)

BTW, the new documentation is proving really helpful.  However, I''m 
wondering why some classes e.g. Panel, TextCtrl have a
''methods'' section
(which is very very useful) and others do not, e.g Grid, HtmlWindow.  Are 
the docs auto-generated?

They were originally automatically converted and ''translated''
from the
WxWidgets latex sources. They''re now held in our SVN in Textile format,
and hand-edited.

Point taken about Grid and HtmlWindow - this is where our latex parser 
didn''t deal with variations in the structure of the originals. Please
do
point do these out, file a bug, or submit a doc patch as you find them.

Thanks
