Obsidian Open in File Explorer

When you past a file path into the Obsidian Editor, prompt to convert it to a lickable link.

Examples

  1. Pasting C:\Users\Public from the clipboard will show a modal dialog:

    prompt.png

    And will creat the markdown:

    [Public](file:///C:/Users/Public)

  2. Pasting C:\Users\Public\Desktop\VLC media player.lnk will open VLC when clicked.
