copy links to other applications #63

Open derekvan opened 9 years ago

derekvan commented 9 years ago

I'd like to be able to copy a link to a node and paste it into another application on the mac (e.g., DevonThink). I tried dragging/dropping, but that only works within Atom docs.

Quick comment: drag and drop would certainly be good if the Atom architecture allows it.

(In the meanwhile ⇧^ C or Atom > Edit Copy Path gives a link to the selected item which can be used in Devonthink for a Data > New Bookmark, which works well and gives a preview)

That's an interesting use case, but it doesn't open the FTML file, then select the specific line / section. That's what I'm really looking for (similar to the ftdoc:// links in FT2).

I agree, selection would be good – and in fact I think it ought to select already (the url has a selection query appended). I wonder if there is a bug associated with percent escaping certain characters in the ID string …

(In DT of course, it's the url on the top edge of the preview that one needs to click (in order to open the file in Atom) - clicking the item name just opens a local DT window.

I'll open a separate issue: creating a special handler like ft3doc:// or something
