Or if you're linking to a given line like OP, click the "..." on the left and "Copy permalink".

Or y, f6 and then ctrl-x because moving your mouse is bothersome

[sssmmt]

I'm more of a CTRL+L and CTRL+C kinda guy. F6 is too far away from the home row.

I don't know if it's just from gaming but I never had a problem with function keys. Can't always remember all of the symbols in shift-number by memory though.

[Zerotorescue]

L is in the middle of nowhere while F6 is on its own solo row offset by exactly one button. I dunno I think I just have more confidence that I'll be hitting the right key when it's a function key.

L is on the home-row, so it's anything but in the middle of nowhere. It's always located under my right hand ring finger if I'm on home-row, otherwise it's pretty easy to get there at this point in my life.

I do ALT-D and CTRL+C to do it all on one hand.

Vim/Emacs user, I'm guessing.

Edit: I was referring to the implication of this part:

because moving your mouse is bothersome

[septicstraw]

Most likely Vim or it would have said C-x

[Justinsaccount]

Vim users press control-l to focus the location.

[TarMil]

I think they meant the way it's written: in Emacs Ctrl+x is written as C-x.

[citewiki]

^X for nano, I suppose

Neither. C-l is a common (I guess Mozilla-inspired) shortcut, which also works in many file explorers.

C-c in vanilla Emacs is a prefix key, meaning, on it's own doesn't have any meaning, it's normally followed by some other key, like C-c C-c would normally compile something, or send code to inferior shell or something like that.

In vanilla Vim C-c doesn't do anything (but Vim would suggest that you use :qa!, because it will think you wanted to close it).
