How can I open a link to a document in todo.txt?

[SeerLite]

I see there's a way to create links to other documents in todo.txt format (by clicking "create link" button and browsing filesystem). How can I open these links?

I've tried using the "open link" button but it doesn't work. Only seems to work for URLs.

Thank you.

Hello,

todo.txt doesn't have any http links support or specific syntax.
It's up to you how you make use of it. Markor currently adds links in todo.txt as link:https://url , which by todo.txt is for custom attributes.

There is however a Open URL button and if you have the cursor on the link it will open the URL in your browser. This will also work in most other formats.

I am not talking about URLs. I'm talking about file links. It feels odd that there is the ability to add links to other documents that can't be used in any way.

todo.txt is a simple plaintext format with one line of text = one todo.
todo.txt only specifies a small amount of rules, for the rest what you do with each line is up to you.
There is nothing specifically about files and links.

If you need more features you may try i.e. Markdown with checkboxes.

Thanks.

The problem with file paths is that they can have spaces etc and this makes parsing a non-delimited path impossible.

Find a delimited format which works (and is supported by the community) and I will add support
