Linking to files in public folders #1633

Description

@KernelDeimos

Currently linking to files in public folders doesn't work very well.

The idea behind linking to Public folders is like this:

  • Create/copy/upload some file to your "Public" folder
  • Navigate to <origin>/@your-username/<filename>
  • The file opens in the default app associated with that filetype
  • The window in GUI has metadata so that when it's in focus the URL is <origin>/@your-username/<filename> instead of <origin>/app/<app-name>

Currently some file types work while others don't, and the URL is immediately replaced with the app URL.

In the production puter.com environment we can see these issues:

  • Go to https://puter.com/@ed/test.txt to see that my test.txt files does work
  • Go to https://puter.com/@ed/README.md to see that my README.md file does not work
