Hello

loaduri function in surf includes the following lines:

    /* In case it's a file path. */
    if(stat(uri, &st) == 0) {
        rp = realpath(uri, NULL);
        u = g_strdup_printf("file://%s", rp);
        free(rp);
    }

That is, you can just throw in a relative file path into surf without
"file:" protocol prefix.

Sincerely
Eon
