This issue stopped me from migrating to Ubuntu for ~18 months (and I still haven't for other reasons). I have hundreds, maybe thousands of URLs scattered in project folders. There's no way I could migrate from Windows without this functionality. I'm sure there are many others the same.
It seems such a simple, trivial enhancement which will benefit anyone hoping to migrate from Windows. It should have received attention long ago. Then again, Ubuntu / Nautilus can't even open its own URL shortcuts reliably - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/252902 , http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=518481 -- Ubuntu does not open MS Windows internet shortcuts with 'url' extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/185165 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to shared-mime-info in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
