Webpositive should be able to handle irc:// urls

[Barrett]

Web+ should open Vision, and should be able to automatically join the server and channel.

That's not really possible currently, as Vision doesn't expose the necessary scripting interfaces for an external app to ask it to do that.

Shouldn't this ticket be related to mime types? Inside "FleTypes" preflet, we already have, eg, "FTP url" and "Http url", and here we can choose how to handle any kind of url. So we could add mime types for irc urls, magnet urls (Qbittorrent is able to handle these urls), and so on.. And choose which application should handle each url. We should prepare for the future :-)

Adding an IRC URL filetype (with a preferred app) is the right way to go, as Web+ already uses that system to open unknown URLs. Moving out of Web+ component in Trac, and this should probably be reported at Vision bugtracker instead.

Indeed.
