Hi Landon,

I have no experience with the feature you want to implement, just some thought :

I think opening an explorer or a pdf reader on your OS should not be too 
difficult.
Making it work on any OS and with a good exception handling (ex. native 
application
not available on the system) may need some work though.

I remember a feature in OpenJUMP to display images from a hyperlink.
Can't remember if it is included in the core or in a specific plugin.
Could be a good start.

We are starting to make extensive use of OpenJUMP at my new day job. I have a 
need for a couple of hotlinking tools:

1) A simple hotlink tool that opens a folder in the operating system file 
browser based on a file path in a feature attribute.

2) A more complicated hotlink tool that shows the user a dialog with a list of 
documents related to a feature. The list is built from a single attribute with 
a delimited text value. When the user selects a value in the list, either a 
folder location is opened in the operating system file browser or a PDF file is 
opened.

Has anyone written plug-ins like this?

If not, and I get around to it in the next few weeks, I'll publish the code for 
the community.

Thanks.

Landon
