Create a URL handler to allow other applications to open FTML files at a specific line #64

Applications like DevonThink can already use Atom > Edit > Copy Path file:// links to open an FTML file in Atom, but it would be good to have a dedicated url handler which can open the files at a specific line.

From what I can tell it looks like this isn't possible to do only within Atom. I think the solution then is to add the custom URL handler into the helper app that's also used to defined the ftml UTI. But I'm going to wait on doing this until I've decided on a final name for "FoldingText for Atom" so that the URL will be stable.

Thanks – that makes sense. I'll use a simple ft3doc:// handler script for the moment, and then convert the links when things are settling down and you have had time to fix a name and write a more durable handler.
