Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

Issue

One of the things which made me super productive with iTerm was being able to Cmd+click a filename and having it open in the default program. It even worked with line and column numbers – i.e. Cmd+clicking something like src/that.test.js:302:57 would run atom src/that.test.js:302:57 and therefore open src/that.test.js at line 302, column 57.

I’d love that in hyper! There used to be a plugin for that (https://github.com/capaj/hyperterm-clicky), but now that hyperlinks are built right into Hyper.app, I figured this is the right place to ask for the thing.

Research direction

Start with Hyper.app’s built-in hyperlink handling and compare its behavior with the linked hyperterm-clicky plugin. The feature is complete when Cmd-clicking a filename, including src/that.test.js:302:57, opens it in the default program with the requested location on macOS.
