Allow links to a specific protocol/program like:
irc://irc.abc.com/#abc
spotify:album:abc...
Following the link should have the same effect as entering the text in the run dialog (if there really is an application associated with this protocol).

Re: [Editing] Linking with protocols/programs
Oh, that should be easy to do! Actually I'll have to _remove_ something (namely URL check) from the program, and not add to it
Added to my issue tracker as #218.

Re: [Editing] Linking with protocols/programs (#218)
I'm not sure if:
from Beta M10.4 Update is meant to address this request. Either way, the links still don't work in the way that I described (pressing F3 on these type of links doesn't have any effect).
No URL check in note editor, any runnable link is allowed.Enhancement

Re: [Editing] Linking with protocols/programs (#218)
I understood the latest changes as follow... pressing F3 with a focused note in the list does work with the http protocol, and the note also has an arrow in the top left to remind us of the presence of a http link. With other protocols, F3 does work after we open a note (doubleclick or enter). For example I tried a "mailto:test@localhost" and it opens my email client, I didn't try other protocols.

Re: [Editing] Linking with protocols/programs (#218)
ok... didn't notice that pressing F3 with an open note does follow the link...
new request then: have an arrow for non-http links and allow F3 to follow non-http links from the browser as well

Re: [Editing] Linking with protocols/programs (#218)
Ok I now get it.. I guess I still haven't removed the URL check from all the places, that's why it is not working from the notes list. Will be fixed in the next version.
