Apt-linker Extension

This extension is intended to ease the life of Ubuntu/Debian users who browse the Internet searching for software, tutorials, etc.

Apt: urls are a way to install packages by using a protocol handler to read the list of packages to install.

This extension will turn lines of text describing commands for installation into clickable links that allow you to install the packages with just 2 clicks.

More info about AptUrl can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptURL

mcpegamer lukanc (ID: 000000a5c265b77e) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 12/09/2016 Does not work with some apt-get commands like UPDATE. Should get support for all commands. PPA: support would be nice.

Vanessa Michelle Faxanadu (ID: 000000ba2f4c25d5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 12/09/2015 Okay... handles text links with "apt-get whatever" perfectly. But it does NOT handle apt:// URLs like I thought it would! That's the only reason why I got this! EDIT: boyfriend of mine submitted your first GitHub issue about this! https://github.com/Ferk/apt-linker/issues/1
