link to local file with absolute path

[juneleung]

Thanks for your work and I faced an issue when using the code.
I wanna to link to a local file path with an absolute file, like /User/Apple/xxx.md, I tried [MD](/User/Apple/xxx.md) but seems the final result generated is http://localhost:1313/Users/Apple/xxx.md, is obvious not a right path.
How can I add a hyperlink to local file with an abs path? cause some files hard to use a relative path when on another stroage disk. Thanks

Hi!
The path starting with / will be automatically treated as root of site
Try [Link](file:///{path}) instead

Hello,
I tried the following:

[pdf](file:///{/Users/Apple/Desktop/motion.pdf}) 
[pdf](file:////Users/Apple/Desktop/motion.pdf) 

but it seems not to work, though it looks like a link, but can't be clicked.
