Yes, there is an option. First download the following deb packages:
the data package: gnome-terminal-data_3.6.1_all.deb
the main package: gnome-terminal_i386.deb (for 32-bit OS) or gnome-terminal_amd64.deb(for 64-bit OS)
Second, install them using the following commands in your terminal:
And third, restart your terminal.
From now, when you will open your gnome-terminal you can quickly search on Google command line errors, warnings and other things. Highlight the text, right-click on it and choose "Search on Google". It opens the default web browser and go to the google search result page:
