[Feature Request] Allow linking to Finder (or folders)

[Overload119]

In a note I want to Cmd+Click a link to open a Finder window to that folder.

It seems to work in this case:

[View in Finder >](/Users/amirsharif/Dropbox/Documentation/Homes/My%20Folder/)

But not in this one:

[View in Finder >](/Users/amirsharif/Dropbox/Documentation/Homes/My Folder/)

It seems the encoding is only relevant to the spaces so there's no automatic way to do this.

Do I understand that you want the link to work without the need to write %20 instead of space in the link?

The markdown syntax specification writes that URLs should be encoded. See the example here.

I don't think it's natural to know that %20 is a space, so it's not easy to link to a directory.

If you drag and drop a folder, it tries to load it into Nota.

If you try to use a paste hook or have a command, most tools will encode the whole thing:

encodeURIComponent('(/Users/amirsharif/Dropbox/Documentation/Homes/My Folder/)')
// => '(%2FUsers%2Famirsharif%2FDropbox%2FDocumentation%2FHomes%2FMy%20Folder%2F)'

Maybe the solution is to support when the full link is encoded (which doesn't work today it seems).

[test](Users%2Famirsharif%2FDropbox%2FDocumentation%2FHomes%2FMy%20Folder)

Is not clickable.

Have you tried encodeURI? This will produce /Users/amirsharif/Dropbox/Documentation/Homes/My%20Folder/ and it might work.
