Curious what you mean by this? Which additional mechanism does Linux (or i3?) have for opening a text file between apps?

- Out_of_Characte 6y agoThere is no additional mechanism, You just open text files as many times as you want with any program. (Unless I misunderstand the parent comments)
- yoz-y 6y agoI think the confusion comes from the fact that the sentence mentions both macOS and iOS, whereas url schemes are an iOS-only concept.
- robenkleene 6y agoGot it yeah, this is probably why I was confused. URL schemes are the only way to do a lot of things on iOS, whereas (as far as I know) they're additive to the *nix ways of doing things on the Mac.
