This is a lazy request.
Hoping towards moving more of my information into text files, I would like a way of directly launching resources from URLs in a text file. Imagine that I copy a bit of email that includes a web URL or a mailto link to an inbox.txt file. When I go through inbox.txt, I would like to just hit a key combination when the cursor is on the URL and have it send to my browser or my mail program.
emacs-wiki/planner does this well (it even highlights clickable URLs). Outside TextMate, one can also use ICeCoffEE (http://web.sabi.net/nriley/software/), but that doesn't work in TextMate.
So, how hard would it be for someone to write a command thingy to make such functionality available in TextMate? I suppose one would have to identify the beginning and end of the URL that the cursor is on and send it to the system's "open" command. I don't have the time to investigate this myself.
