There is no realization of gx. Is there a plan to achieve it?

Hi, no immediate plans. However, this should be simple to implement, since IJ already recognizes links in the editor. We just need to find an API for that.

Thank

Going to bump this discussion. I would love if someone could achieve it 👀. Couldn't we just call macOS open?

While it's not traditional Vim, you can use gd on a link to navigate.

hmmm. maybe we could set a keybind nmap gx gd by default? makes it easier to discover...

I think we could create a simple command that checks it's on a hyperlink and then invokes GoToDefinition. I don't think that would be too tricky. It's all about finding the time 😀
