In the string filename1, filename2 I want to double click filename1, and have it not copy the comma. I tried to follow the instructions in this post, but it did not work for me. Specifically, I tried:

$ pid=$(dconf read /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/default | tr -d "'")
$ dconf read /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:$pid/word-char-exceptions                                                                           
@ms '-,.;?%&#_+@~·:='
$ dconf write /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:$pid/word-char-exceptions '@ms "-.%_@~"'                                                           
$ dconf read /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:$pid/word-char-exceptions                                                                           
@ms '-.%_@~'

What am I doing wrong? I am using GNOME Terminal 3.14.3 on Red Hat Enterprise 7.3.

This setting only got introduced in gnome-terminal 3.16. There is no way of changing the word selection characters in 3.14.
