I copied that into my clipboard then tried going back to terminal and found out I had lost the youtube-viewer job as a result of having used script and a typescript file to grab the url from youtube-viewer. So I'm about to try running mate-terminal and running youtube-viewer and keying in the :login command. Then control-a control-c control-l then hit alt-f2 and run pluma and control-v to dump the clipboard contents into pluma. Then get the url saved in surf.txt and get out of pluma. Then run firefox and hit f10 then open file for surf.txt and control-a control-c control-l control-v then enter gets me to a google login. Then I allow youtube-viewer access to my account and then copy authentication code with control-c once on the copy button then close out of firefox. Then I think alt-f2 and run mate-terminal again and then run fg and see if youtube-viewer with its code entry field comes back. This last part I haven't yet tried if it works I'll have a process I'll share with the list for any wanting to login to their youtube accounts using youtube-viewer.
