I found this:
https://superuser.com/questions/548119/how-do-i-configure-custom-url-handlers-on-os-x
and downloaded SwiftDefaultApps. It works on High Sierra, don't know about El
Capitan, but if not it seems that RCDefaultApp should do the trick for you.
Can you be more specific?
What do you mean with "it works"?
Which command did you assign for textedit protocol?
Yesterday I read a similar answer and installed RVDefaultApp. Now I can set
which application should open textedit:// URIs.
However I cannot set the text editor directly, as the text editor cannot handle
this protocol.
I guess I should use lilypond-invoke-editor but, as I've already reported, I
could not make it work on either Mac or Windows.
It looks like it's the last step to get what I want.
OK, then you are in more or less the same situation as me - you need a small
helper app that takes the URI and invokes your editor.
I have a small AppleScript app which does this (I think I got the base for it
from the LilyPond site ages ago):
roperty urlPrefix : "textedit://"
on replaceText(find, replace, subject)
set prevTIDs to text item delimiters of AppleScript
set text item delimiters of AppleScript to find
set subject to text items of subject
set text item delimiters of AppleScript to replace
set subject to "" & subject
set text item delimiters of AppleScript to prevTIDs
return subject
end replaceText
on open location texteditURL
-- strip prefix
set the character_count to the number of characters of the urlPrefix
set the emacsclientURL to (characters (the character_count + 1) thru -1
of the texteditURL) as string
-- extract PATH LINE and COLUMN
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ":"
set emacsclientPATH to first text item of emacsclientURL
set emacsclientLINE to second text item of emacsclientURL
set emacsclientCOLUMN to third text item of emacsclientURL
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
set emacsclientPATH to replaceText("%20", "\\ ", emacsclientPATH)
-- launch emacsclient
do shell script "/Applications/Eddie/tellEddie " & quoted form of emacsclientPATH & ":" &
emacsclientLINE & ":" & emacsclientCOLUMN
end open location
My problem now is that SwiftDefaultApps silently fails to set this as the
textedit target, possibly because my info.plist is too old (it has worked in
the past):

I have not yet had time to find out what the problem is - you may be luckier.
