IIUC, "opening" the link type "http" triggers ‘browse-url’ which eventually wants to talk to a server using URL that begins with "http://";, and opening the link type "file" basically triggers ‘find-file’.
What if i want to ‘browse-url’ with scheme "file://"? That is, i don't want to bother going through a server. This is what i was able to cook up: (defun ttn-view-html-file-in-browser (path) (browse-url (browse-url-file-url path))) (org-add-link-type "html" 'ttn-view-html-file-in-browser) This allows me to write in ~/build/GNU/rcs/.ttn.org, e.g.: [[html:.,lcov/rcs/src/index.html][lcov output]] and see in the browser's location box: file:///home/ttn/build/GNU/rcs/.%2clcov/rcs/src/index.html My questions: - Is this already builtin somewhere? - If so, where? - If not, is the above code the recommended way?
