Making .URL files actually open in a new tab

Rami

Hi,

First of all I'd like to thank the developer for making an awesome web-app.
It's pretty easy to setup and I like the features it has so far a lot.

Now my question is; would it be possible to support .URL files?
So that it opens the target URL in a new tab of the webbrowser; perhaps with a few options.
With my limited knowledge I suppose it's not a very hard feature to implement.

Thanks a lot

Hi. I may have come across it earlier, but I wasn't actually aware of the .URL file type. It would definitely make sense to support this in Files, to open external links in new browser window. I will look into a basic implementation for next release (1-2 months).

It could even be extended, for example by displaying Youtube links or remote image/video files directly in Files' own popup viewer.
