[pmwiki-users] Links with other protocols

[Clemens Gruber]

Hello,

I've tried to enable links with another protocol in PmWiki (Real 
streaming "rtsp", e.g.
rtsp://xy.rz.uni-osnabrueck.de/video.rm, by default not supportet), I 
added in config.php:

# protocol rtsp as link
$IMap['rtsp:'] = 'rtsp:$1';
$LinkFunctions['rtsp:'] = 'LinkIMap'

this works, but I don't know whether this is by chance. ;-) I was first 
exposed that the item
$IMap['rtsp:'] = 'rtsp:$1';

works alone. But the second line is necessary.

Perhaps I'm one of those with a "weak heart" 
(http://pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/MakeLink, 
http://pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/LinkIMap)

Is this above a correct use and what are the differences to a markup 
like this:
$IMapLinkFmt['http:'] = "<a class='httplink urllink' 
href='\$LinkUrl'>\$LinkText</a>";

Kind regards
Clemens Gruber
