Thread:Extension talk:WYSIWYG/Get the FileLink extension to work with WYSIWYG/reply

I understand this may not be the most user friendly solution but one alternative is using unc links like  , which should be inserted using template dialog and will then appear as "template" icon in edit mode of wysiwyg (this works f.ex with #6 bundle of download section).

If I would fix this, I would try to modify mediawiki/plugin.js and link.js dialog to support "file" prefix, I am just not sure if that is enough, it may require modifications elsewhere too.
