Seems not consistent to me. Why is "run:" associated with Web?
Seems this was an old exception added by Uwe. I sorted this out and
converted old "run:" links to Other type (reversion vice versa).
Thanks. I should have thought of that.
What I was thinking here was that "Other" would more or less act like
'literal', in the sense that it would just output whatever's there. The
special handling of "http" with the Web one confused me; I missed that
it would also handle "ftp://";. But now I wonder whether we should change
"Web" to "HTTP" or something like that, and let everything 'literal' be
handled by "Other". Then we could say something like:
Web: Adds "http://"; if not given (but also allows other 'authorities')
EMail: Adds "mailto:"; if not given.
File: Adds "file://" if not given.
Other: Outputs as is.
Then I'd write a lyx2lyx script that would convert non-http targets to
other.
Alternatively, I'm starting to wonder how useful these 'types' really
are. Does it really save people a lot of effort not to have to write
"mailto" or "http"? Or is that just more confusing?
