eww-copy-alternate-url is fantastic
===================================

This is a short post, saying kudos to however cam up with
`eww-copy-alternate-url' in Emacs.

This function was mentioned in the latest weekly Emacs
newsletter from Sacha Chua [1].


How to use this function
------------------------
Open a web page, like a blog post in eww, a web browser
for GNU Emacs that provides a simple, no-frills experience
that focuses on readability.

Then run the command:

   M-x eww-copy-alternate-url

This command will show in the mini-buffer a list of the
alternative URLs that are in the source code of the web
page (if any). Simply select one of the URLs to copy that
URL to the kill ring.

Wonderful, how these smart commands in Emacs makes things
easier :)
