Command line params: path / URI handling
Status: Pre-Alpha

Per the current plan, Padclipse should open a file for every command line parameter entered that isn't already consumed by the Eclipse platform.
Currently these parameters are assumed to be URI-s, with the file: scheme assumed if no scheme part is given. For example:
/home/erkkil/file.txt would become file:file.txt
This doesn't work on Windows, which has drive letters in the paths like C:\file.txt
Opening http: and other URI-s should be possible as well.
Find a platform-independent best practice to handle these parameters in the most user friendly way possible. If platform-independence is hard to achieve, then find a platform-specific user friendly way to do it.
