In the mixed environment of Linux and Windows machines, there is a lot of links shared via IM, emails etc. They point to the same location, but they have different formats.
For example Windows link \\MACHINE\dir1\dir2\file.xyz
is equivalent to Linux' smb://MACHINE/dir1/dir2/file.xyz
.
Is there a possibility to translate Windows links transparently in Nautilus or/and shell?
