Hi, I’d like to be able to open some plain text files whose shortcuts I have on my desktop by dragging-and-dropping the shortcuts (.lnk files) to Sublime Text’s window. However, if we do this, instead we’ll see the hex data representing the actual shortcut (.lnk) file, not the linked file, which is the intended.
I tried adding the option "binary_file_patterns": ["*.jpg", "*.jpeg", "*.png", "*.gif", "*.ttf", "*.tga", "*.dds", "*.ico", "*.eot", "*.pdf", "*.swf", "*.jar", "*.zip"], to my user settings, then trying two approaches: 1. removing all the contents of the array (thus leaving it as []) and 2. adding the ".lnk" option. None worked.
I know this exact same question was asked by someone else 11 years ago, but still no clues; therefore I thought it would be best to ask again.
