Title: proposal: combo-format of "amount + recvaddr + checksum" to ease payments
Post by: hamdi on May 13, 2012, 07:02:12 PM


it would be nice to make a combo-format so that the payer only has to copy&paste one line into a client/interface in order to get money moving.

i mean like

BITCOIN-0.01-1JdtNn96NaP1MyW52QJEVKzquEMULRmud5-checksumhere

so when i am on a website i only have to copy&paste this single line into my client,
having amount in there, and through the checksum the correct copying is guaranteed

Yeah, good idea. But a double-clickable selection would be even better, but then you have to invent something to replace the hyphens.
