hey, I just found some undocumented features of pddplink. It seems to be possible to open any filetype with its default application. pddplink file:///Users/marius/pd/image.jpg will use preview on mac to show the image. for pd applications this works with local names pddplink anotherpatch.pd why is the local path not working with other filetypes? see also http://www.pdpedia.org/en/pddplink marius.

This mechanism works completely differently on all platforms, so it
would take some testing. Mac OS X has the oh-so-handy, app-purpose
"open" command...

I think Kzrysztof coded it that way, thinking it would be web file
types. Wouldn't be too hard to change.
