The easy solution is to not run emacs in a terminal, but use the GUI version. With emacs running in a terminal, I cannot think of anything you can do from within emacs to alleviate the problem, since after all emacs is not involved in the process of copying text from the terminal. Oh, but another way would be to not copy the URL at all, but use browse-url-at-point. Your emacs setup may need some tweaking for that to work. See variable: browse-url-browser-function. - Harald
