markdown image syntax and url

[jackusay]

some url, what should I do? I mean, should I parse this url, or just let it go?
Is it real useful format?

#online image, no work
![alt text](https://example.com/img)
![alt text](http://example.com/img.jpg)

#local image, ok
![alt text](a.jpg "title a1") #relative path
![alt text](abc/a.jpg "title a1") #relative path
![alt text](C:\aa bb\2023-12-30.png "title a1") #absolute path
![alt text](中/a c 文.jpg "title a1") #non ascii 

#???
![alt text](file:///C:\Current Work\Service\12-30-34.png)
  wrong: file:///
![alt text](//aa/bb/12-30-34.png)
  wrong: //
![alt text](abc/a b.jpg =205x251)
  wrong: =205x251

maybe use urllib.request.url2pathname(path)

from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43911052/urlparse-on-a-windows-file-scheme-uri-leaves-extra-slash-at-start

@MiroslavMatas Why are you not use C:\Users\user\Downloads\app note\... directly?

And it can be file:/// and file://, right?

Personally, I only use relative path.

new/clean CudaText + add Markdown Preview + Editing plugins
markdown preview not works (for me) - on C:\Windows\System32\SecurityAndMaintenance.png
but it is ok for file://C:\Windows\System32\SecurityAndMaintenance.png
so this is the reason for my usage of file://drive:/path/name…
(you are correct - both are ok file:/// and file://)

[veksha]

on Windows it should be 3 slashes for local file:

examples for Unix-like:

file://localhost/etc/fstab
file:///etc/fstab

latest version v1.2.0 can read the file:///
