Support different protocols in the URL field (e.g. smb:// and message://)

This was posted a while ago, consider this a re-post.
Suggestion: please do not modify the contents of the URL field.
The following URL types seem to work in URL....
mailto
ftp
http
https
If I use "smb://", then the URL field incorrectly prefixes it with "http://". smb:// is a valid protocol on OS X, and is recognized by Firefox.

Same problem with notes:// urls

....and message:// URLs for those who want to link back to e-mail messages in Apple Mail.
I would suggest only prefixing an http:// onto a URL if it *doesn't* already include a protocol prefix. It should be simple enough to search for "://" in the URL string and only pre-pend the HTTP protocol prefix if NO prefix is present.

jhollington's idea seems to be the best to me. i have a completely self created protocol that is present in the windows registry and also in firefox. the link looks like this: we://web_content/web_posts/ID/IN(2106,2100,209)
would be nice to have it opened from RTM.

Try using tinyurl (or similar) to encapsulate your URIs, then put those into RTM.

Only problem with jhollington's suggestion is that Mail.app doesn't apply a :// automatically when you copy the message URL. It's in the format of "message:%3C49B7E496.9030400@sun.com%3E". It'll work as message://, it just doesn't do it automatically in that format.

Did this get fixed? I am successfully using Notational Velocity's custom URLs on my Macbook in conjunction with the URL fields. eg. "nv://search%20term%20here"
