In the beginning, you could even start programs with program(...), but Adobe recognized soon this might be a security problem.

Nowadays, the “best” behaviour is when the viewer asks you if you really want to open such a link but then hands control to the OS.

Last time I checked, Adobe Reader even let you open hidden files from arbitrary paths.

Several other viewers just do nothing.

Best, Hraban
