File URIs don't work #18

Closed NaimKabir closed 1 year ago

NaimKabir commented 1 year ago

A short link to the filesystem won't properly redirect. On Mac OS.

e.g this long link won't function: file:///Users/montypython/Documents/example.pdf

This is inexpressible in the Chrome API today. It won't allow arbitrary access to file system resources for security reasons.
