-# Plan — Follow-up enhancements: file/path reference handling
-
-Companion to the now-shipped change that added `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_CONTAINING_FOLDER_SEL` / `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_FILE_FROM_SEL` and fixed the `Paths.ModuleDirectory` anchor bug in the hyperlink-click handler.
-
-These items were intentionally deferred from that change to keep the scope tight. They are independent of each other; pick any subset.
-
-## Status (2026-05-16)
-
-Already shipped on `dev_master`:
- New selection-based commands `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_CONTAINING_FOLDER_SEL` (40395) and `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_FILE_FROM_SEL` (40396), wired to Edit > Miscellaneous and the editor right-click popup. No accelerator — users can bind one via custom keybindings if desired.
- Shared helpers in `src\Helpers.c`: `ExtractSelectionOrTokenAtCaret`, `SplitFilePathLineColNum`, `ResolveSelectionToPath`.
- Bug fix at `src\Notepad3.c:8891` (or thereabouts after later edits) — relative `file:///` URLs now anchor to the current document's directory, fallback `Paths.WorkingDirectory`, never `Paths.ModuleDirectory`.
- English placeholder strings replicated across all 25 sibling locale `menu_*.rc` files. Translators still need to translate them.
-
-Function bodies for the two new commands live in `src\Notepad3.c` (not Edit.c) because `<shlobj.h>` defines `SORT_ASCENDING` / `SORT_DESCENDING` enum values that conflict with Edit.c's `SortOrderMask` enum.
-
-## Item 1 — Bare-path hotspotting (`HYPLNK_REGEX_FULL` extension)
-
-**Goal**: make `C:\Users\me\foo.txt`, `\\server\share\file`, `.\rel\path.c`, `../include/foo.h`, and similar bare paths clickable hotspots in the editor, just like `https://...` URLs already are.
-
-### Why this is deferred and load-bearing
-
-The existing hyperlink hotspot system (`src\Edit.c:111-116`) uses one big PCRE2 regex that requires an explicit scheme prefix:
-```c
-#define HYPLNK_REGEX_FULL   "\\b(?:(?:https?|ftp)://|file:///|file://|mailto:|www\\.|ftp\\.)" ...
-```
-Adding bare-path matching is high-risk because:
-1. **False positives** — `C:` could match in non-path text (e.g. a code snippet, a colon-time `12:34:56`).
-2. **Indicator-marking pass cost** — the URL hotspotter runs on every restyle (`MarkAllOccurrences` flow). A broader regex adds CPU per keystroke in large documents.
-3. **Lexer interference** — many lexers already style strings/paths in domain-specific ways. Adding `INDIC_NP3_HYPERLINK` on top of an existing lexer style can cause visual conflicts (double-underlining, color clash).
-4. **`SCN_INDICATORRELEASE` activation** — currently `HandleHotSpotURLClicked` at `src\Notepad3.c:8824` is dispatched on indicator-release. It calls `UrlIsFileUrl(szTextW)` to decide between OPEN_IN_NOTEPAD3 and OPEN_WITH_BROWSER. Bare paths aren't file:// URLs, so the routing logic needs a new branch: "if it looks like a Windows path, treat it as OPEN_IN_NOTEPAD3 directly."
-
-### Implementation sketch
-
-Two viable approaches:
-
-**A. Single bigger regex.** Add an alternation arm for paths. E.g.:
-```
-\\b(?:[A-Za-z]:[\\\\/]|\\\\\\\\[^\\s]+\\\\|\\.{1,2}[\\\\/])[^\\s'`"<>|*,;]+
-```
- Drive-letter: `C:\...`, `c:/...`
- UNC: `\\server\share\...`
- Relative: `.\foo`, `..\foo`, `./foo`, `../foo`
-
-Pros: minimal code change. Cons: regex becomes harder to maintain; false-positive risk is concentrated.
-
-**B. Second-pass detection.** Keep `HYPLNK_REGEX_FULL` for scheme URLs. Add a separate, more restrictive pass for bare paths only when the line context suggests "this is a path" — e.g. preceded by `at`, `file:`, `> `, in compiler-error format `file.c:42:`, etc. More conservative; harder to author.
-
-**Recommendation**: try (A) but gate behind a `Settings2.HyperlinkBarePaths` opt-in toggle defaulting to `false`. Document the toggle in `Build\Notepad3.ini` `[Settings2]` and `readme/config/Configuration.md` (CLAUDE.md invariant).
-
-### Required touchpoints
-
-| File | Change |
-|---|---|
-| `src\Edit.c:111-116` | Extend `HYPLNK_REGEX_FULL` (or add `HYPLNK_REGEX_BAREPATH` and run both) |
-| `src\Notepad3.c:8824` (`HandleHotSpotURLClicked`) | New branch when `!UrlIsFileUrl(szTextW)` AND text looks like a Windows path → call same OPEN_IN_NOTEPAD3 logic but skip `PathCreateFromUrlW` (use the text as-is, then `ResolveSelectionToPath`-style anchoring) |
-| `src\TypeDefs.h` (`Settings2`) | Add `HyperlinkBarePaths` bool with default `false` |
-| `src\Config\Config.cpp` | Persist `HyperlinkBarePaths` |
-| `Build\Notepad3.ini`, `readme\config\Configuration.md` | Document new INI key |
-
-### Verification
-
- Open a fresh `.txt` buffer with toggle ON. Paste:
-  ```
-  C:\Windows\notepad.exe
-  ..\src\Helpers.c
-  \\?\C:\Windows
-  src/Edit.c:111
-  See line C: this should NOT highlight
-  Time 12:34:56 must NOT highlight
-  ```
-  Expect: lines 1-4 hotspotted, lines 5-6 not.
- With toggle OFF: no change vs. current behavior.
- Test in C/C++ buffer (SCLEX_CPP) to confirm no lexer-style clash on strings containing paths.
-
-## Item 2 — Markdown `[label](url)` extraction in `ExtractSelectionOrTokenAtCaret`
-
-**Goal**: when the caret is inside the URL portion of a Markdown link `[label](url)`, the selection extractor should grab `url` rather than expanding outward through the closing `)` and stopping at the next whitespace.
-
-### Why this is deferred
-
-The current `ExtractSelectionOrTokenAtCaret` in `src\Helpers.c` uses a flat boundary set `[\s'`"<>|*,;]` and never considers paired-delimiter context. Notepad4's `EditGetStringAroundCaret` (`notepad4\src\Edit.cpp:7015-7093`) has a dedicated subroutine to recognize `(...)` after a Markdown link target and clamp the extraction.
-
-It's deferred because: (a) Notepad3 already hotspots Markdown URLs via the lexer-driven indicator path, so most Markdown click flows already work; (b) the extractor is used by the new selection commands, where the user can always select the URL by hand if the auto-expand is wrong.
-
-### Sketch
-
-Inside `ExtractSelectionOrTokenAtCaret` in `src\Helpers.c`, when the selection is empty, BEFORE the regular boundary scan:
-
-```c
-// Markdown link target: if caret sits inside `(...)` and the char before '(' is ']',
-// clamp the extraction to the contents of the parens.
-DocPos const posCur = SciCall_GetCurrentPos();
-// Walk back to find an unmatched '(' on the same line.
-// If found AND the char immediately before is ']', use [openParen+1, matching ')') as the span.
-```
-
-Use Scintilla's bracket-matching (`SciCall_BraceMatch`) — but only on `(`; Scintilla supports `()` `[]` `{}` `<>`. Caveat: caret-on-`(` semantics vary; you may need to do a manual scan.
-
-### Touchpoints
-
- `src\Helpers.c` — `ExtractSelectionOrTokenAtCaret` (introduced in the prior change).
-
-### Verification
-
-```markdown
-See [the doc](D:\projects\foo\readme.md) for details.
-                ^ caret here
-```
-Invoke "Open File from Selection" → opens `D:\projects\foo\readme.md`. Currently expands to `D:\projects\foo\readme.md)` and the trailing `)` may or may not be tolerated by `ResolveSelectionToPath`.
-
-## Item 3 — Enable/disable gating in `MsgInitMenu` for the new commands
-
-**Goal**: grey out `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_CONTAINING_FOLDER_SEL` / `IDM_EDIT_OPEN_FILE_FROM_SEL` when there's no selection AND no token at the caret position.
-
-### Current behavior
-
-The commands are always enabled. Invoking them with an empty selection on whitespace-only content silently produces a `MessageBeep(MB_ICONHAND)`. This matches Notepad4's UX and is acceptable, but a power user might prefer a greyed-out menu.
-
-### Sketch
-
-`MsgInitMenu()` in `src\Notepad3.c` should add (near the existing `IDM_EDIT_INSERT_GUID` enable check around line 4963):
-```c
-bool const bHasToken = !SciCall_IsSelectionEmpty();
-// optionally also check word boundaries at SciCall_GetCurrentPos()
-EnableCmd(hmenu, IDM_EDIT_OPEN_CONTAINING_FOLDER_SEL, bHasToken /* OR token-at-caret */);
-EnableCmd(hmenu, IDM_EDIT_OPEN_FILE_FROM_SEL, bHasToken);
-```
-
-Right-click context menu builder at `src\Notepad3.c:4549` (`imenu == MNU_EDIT` branch) already has a similar pattern for the case-conversion commands using `s_iCtxMenuClickPos`. Add the same predicate there.
-
-### Verification
-
- Empty selection, caret on whitespace → menu items greyed.
- Empty selection, caret in a word → enabled.
- Any non-empty selection → enabled.
-
-## Item 4 — `\\?\` long-path prefix handling in `ResolveSelectionToPath`
-
-**Goal**: gracefully handle paths with the Windows long-path prefix when passed to `SHParseDisplayName`.
-
-### Why
-
-`SHParseDisplayName` does not always accept `\\?\C:\...`. For shell-API consumption the prefix should be stripped. PathLib wrappers already handle this internally for filesystem ops, but `EditOpenContainingFolderFromSelection` calls `SHParseDisplayName` directly with `Path_Get(hpth)` which may include the prefix.
-
-### Sketch
-
-Inside `EditOpenContainingFolderFromSelection` in `src\Notepad3.c`, before `SHParseDisplayName`:
-```c
-LPCWSTR pth = Path_Get(hpth);
-if (StrCmpNW(pth, L"\\\\?\\", 4) == 0) {
-    // Skip the prefix for shell-API use. If \\?\UNC\..., strip differently.
-    if (StrCmpNW(pth + 4, L"UNC\\", 4) == 0) {
-        // \\?\UNC\server\share → \\server\share
-        WCHAR shellPath[MAX_PATH_EXPLICIT];
-        StringCchPrintf(shellPath, COUNTOF(shellPath), L"\\\\%s", pth + 8);
-        SHParseDisplayName(shellPath, ...);
-    } else {
-        SHParseDisplayName(pth + 4, ...);
-    }
-}
-```
-
-### Verification
-
- `\\?\C:\Windows` → opens `C:\Windows` in Explorer.
- `\\?\UNC\server\share\file.txt` → opens `\\server\share\` with `file.txt` selected.
-
-## Item 5 — `#fragment` parsing for `file://` URLs
-
-**Goal**: a `file:///D:/docs/readme.md#section-2` URL clicked in Notepad3 should at minimum open the file (currently works) and ideally jump to the line with `#section-2` as a heading anchor.
-
-### Why deferred
-
-Markdown anchor resolution is out of scope for a text editor — the heading-anchor mapping is a Markdown-specific convention. The minimum useful behavior is to strip `#...` before resolving the path. Currently `PathCreateFromUrlW` may or may not strip it depending on Windows version.
-
-### Sketch
-
-In `HandleHotSpotURLClicked` at `src\Notepad3.c:8824`, after `PathCreateFromUrlW`:
-```c
-LPWSTR const hash = StrChr(szUnEscW, L'#');
-if (hash) {
-    *hash = L'\0';  // discard fragment
-}
-```
-A future Markdown-aware extension could parse `#anchor-name`, scan the buffer for `## Anchor Name` (case-insensitive, dashes→spaces), and `SCI_GOTOLINE` there. Probably not worth the complexity.
-
-### Verification
-
-Click `file:///D:/test/foo.md#whatever` — opens `foo.md`. Don't error or attempt to interpret `#whatever`.
-
-## Item 6 — Localize the new menu strings (translator task, not Claude's)
-
-The 25 sibling locales currently have **English placeholder** strings for the two new menu items. Translators need to update:
-
- `language\np3_*\menu_*.rc` — replace `"Open &Containing Folder of Selection\tCtrl+Shift+,"` and `"Open &File from Selection"` (both in Edit > Miscellaneous AND in `IDR_MUI_POPUPMENU`).
-
-This is normal translator workflow — not blocked, just pending.
-
-### What Claude can do
-
-Nothing without authoritative translations. If asked to "translate", refuse and ask the user to source translations from the locale maintainers listed in `language\np3_*\strings_*.rc` (`IDS_MUI_TRANSL_AUTHOR`).
-
-## Item 7 — Tinyexpr behavior in `SplitFilePathLineColNum` `:N` fallback
-
-`SplitFilePathLineColNum` falls back to `SplitFilePathLineNum` (which uses `te_interp`) for the single-colon case `foo.c:42`. This means `foo.c:42+1` would parse as line 43 — a side effect of using tinyexpr. Two existing callers depend on this:
-
- `src\Notepad3.c:8666` — `SplitFilePathLineNum(wchUrl, NULL)` — only cuts the suffix, discards the number.
- `src\Notepad3.c:8879` — `SplitFilePathLineNum(szTextW, &lineNum)` — uses the parsed number.
-
-If we ever want to drop the tinyexpr quirk: replace the wrapper with a plain `_wtoi` parse. Verify the two existing callers don't pass arithmetic.
-
-## Touch-stones for any future session
-
- **CLAUDE.md** in repo root has all the build/encoding/localization invariants. Read it before touching `.rc` files.
- **`.venv\Scripts\python.exe`** is required for bulk locale edits. Do NOT use sed/perl.
- **`.rc` files** are UTF-8 *without* BOM, CRLF. Use `Build\rc_to_utf8.cmd` if a BOM sneaks in.
- **Locale es_la** has an empty directory — script-based bulk edits should skip it gracefully.
- **Reference impl**: Notepad4 at `D:\DEV\GitHub\notepad4\` — inspect `src\Edit.cpp` (`EditOpenSelection`, `EditGetStringAroundCaret`) and `src\Helpers.cpp` (`OpenContainingFolder`).
- **Build**: `Build\Build_x64.cmd Release` for quick verification. The Build.ps1 wrapper has quoting quirks under some PowerShell versions — invoke MSBuild directly if it fails: `& "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\18\Community\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe" "D:\DEV\GitHub\Notepad3\Notepad3.sln" /m /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=x64 /v:minimal`.
-
-## Out of scope for these follow-ups
-
- IDS_MUI_* / Notepad3DLL string resources — none of the deferred items add user-facing strings beyond menu labels (which are inline in `.rc`).
- ARM64-specific concerns — none of these touch rendering or CET paths.
- grepWin integration — orthogonal.

+# File-path handling in Notepad3
+
+Everywhere Notepad3 turns a piece of text into a *file* — a clickable link in
+the editor, a path you typed into a dialog, a reference you selected from a
+build log — it goes through the same few rules. This page collects them in
+one place.
+
+> Related references

+
+## Quick reference
+
+| Want to … | Do this |
+|---|---|
+| Open a `http://…` or `https://…` URL from the document | Ctrl+Click the highlighted link → opens in your default browser. |
+| Open a `file:///…` URL in Notepad3 | Alt+Click the highlighted link → loads the target into the editor. |
+| Open a bare path like `C:\foo\bar.c:42` in Notepad3 | Alt+Click — bare paths are highlighted only when they end in `:42`, `:42:7`, or `(42)`. |
+| Reveal the file under the caret in Explorer | Place the caret on the path and choose **Edit → Miscellaneous → Open Containing Folder of Selection**, or right-click → same. |
+| Open a file referenced by selection / token at caret | **Edit → Miscellaneous → Open File from Selection** (right-click also). |
+| Reveal the *current* document in Explorer | **File → Open File Explorer**. |
+| Copy the current path | **File → Path to Clipboard → Copy Filename / Directory / Full-Path**. |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Clickable hyperlinks in your document
+
+When **View → Hyperlink Hotspots** is enabled (default), Notepad3 detects
+links and paths in your text and marks them with an underline. Click
+modifiers control what happens:
+
+| Gesture | Action |
+|---|---|
+| **Ctrl+Click** | Open in the associated external app (browser for URLs, default opener for files). |
+| **Ctrl+Shift+Click** | Open in the associated app *in the background* (Notepad3 stays in front). |
+| **Alt+Click** | Open in Notepad3 itself — works for `file:///…` URLs and bare file paths. |
+| **Alt+Shift+Click** | Open in a *new* Notepad3 instance. |
+| **Middle-mouse click** | Same as Ctrl+Click. |
+| **Right-click on a hotspot** | Context menu with explicit "Open Hyperlink" / "Copy Hyperlink URL" entries. |
+| **Hover** (with `ShowHypLnkToolTip`) | Tooltip showing the link target. |
+
+### URL forms Notepad3 recognises
+
+Detected as a clickable URL with a scheme:
+
+| Form | Example |
+|---|---|
+| HTTP(S) | `https://example.com/foo` |
+| FTP | `ftp://example.com/foo` |
+| `www.…` (no scheme) | `www.example.com` |
+| `ftp.…` (no scheme) | `ftp.example.com` |
+| `mailto:` | `mailto:nobody@example.com` |
+| `file://` | `file://server/share/file.txt` |
+| `file:///` | `file:///D:/projects/foo/readme.md` |
+
+The matcher is a single PCRE2 regular expression — it stops at common
+sentence punctuation (`. , ! ? :`) so a URL followed by punctuation in prose
+doesn't absorb the period.
+
+### File URLs (`file://` and `file:///`)
+
+After the scheme is stripped, the rest is treated as a filesystem path.
+**Relative `file:///` URLs** are resolved against:
+
+1. The directory of the *current document*, if it has been saved.
+2. Otherwise, the working directory (the directory Notepad3 was launched
+   from, or set via `/y` on the command line).
+
+It is *never* resolved against Notepad3's install directory — that was a bug
+in older versions and is now fixed.
+
+A trailing `#fragment` (e.g. `file:///foo.md#section-2`) is **stripped before
+the file is opened**. Notepad3 doesn't resolve Markdown anchor names; the
+file is opened cleanly without trying to interpret `#section-2`.
+
+### Bare file paths (with mandatory line spec)
+
+Plain filesystem paths are clickable **when they're followed by a line-number
+indicator** — that's a strong signal the text is a build-error reference,
+log entry, or stack-trace line rather than prose. Three prefix shapes are
+recognised:
+
+| Form | Example |
+|---|---|
+| Drive letter + separator | `C:\foo\bar.c:42` · `c:/foo/bar.c(42)` |
+| UNC | `\\server\share\foo\bar.c:42` |
+| Relative | `.\src\Helpers.c:42` · `../include/foo.h:42:7` |
+
+A bare path without a line spec — for example `C:\Windows` typed in prose —
+is **not** highlighted. That's intentional, to keep false positives down.
+If you need to act on such a path, select it and use **Open Containing
+Folder of Selection** or **Open File from Selection** (see §2).
+
+### Line / column suffix patterns
+
+Notepad3 recognises four trailing patterns and jumps to the parsed line
+when opening:
+
+| Pattern | Example | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `:N` | `Helpers.c:42` | Line 42 |
+| `:N:M` | `Helpers.c:42:7` | Line 42, column 7 (column currently ignored) |
+| `(N)` | `Helpers.c(42)` | Line 42 |
+| `,N` | `Helpers.c,42` | Line 42 |
+
+The parser is digit-only — `Helpers.c:42+1` is **not** interpreted as
+"line 43"; it's treated as a non-match and the path is opened without a
+jump.
+
+A colon that follows a drive letter (`C:`) is never treated as a line
+separator.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Selection-based commands
+
+For paths that *aren't* highlighted as hotspots — or when you just want to
+act on the path under the caret without targeting an indicator precisely —
+use the two **Edit → Miscellaneous** entries (also in the editor right-click
+menu when there's a selection or a token at the click point):
+
+### Open Containing Folder of Selection
+
+Resolves the selected text (or token at caret) to a filesystem path and
+opens Windows Explorer with that file highlighted. If the target is a
+folder, opens the folder itself.
+
+### Open File from Selection
+
+Resolves the same way, then loads the file into Notepad3 (jumps to the
+parsed line if a line spec was present). If the target is a folder, opens
+the file-open dialog rooted in it.
+
+### How the token is extracted
+
+If there's a non-empty selection:
+- Use the selected text.
+- Truncate at the first newline or tab character.
+
+If the selection is empty:
+- Expand from the caret outward on the same line.
+- Stop at any of: whitespace, single quote, backtick, double quote, `<`,
+  `>`, `|`, `*`, `,`, `;`.
+- **Markdown link special-case**: if the caret sits inside `(…)` parens
+  immediately preceded by `]`, the inner contents of the parens are used
+  instead — so caret inside the URL of `[label](D:\projects\foo\readme.md)`
+  picks up `D:\projects\foo\readme.md`, not the surrounding text.
+
+Surrounding whitespace, `"`, `'`, `` ` ``, `<`, `>` are stripped from the
+result.
+
+Any trailing line/column suffix (`:N`, `:N:M`, `(N)`, `,N`) is split off
+before path resolution. For *Open File from Selection*, the parsed line
+number controls the caret jump after the file loads.
+
+### Menu state
+
+Both commands are greyed out when there's no selection *and* no word at the
+caret / click position. They have no default keyboard shortcut; users can
+bind one via custom keybindings if desired.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Path resolution rules
+
+The same rules apply to file-URL clicks, bare-path clicks, and both
+selection-based commands.
+
+### Anchor priority for relative paths
+
+A *relative* path (one without a drive letter, UNC `\\`, or leading slash)
+is resolved against:
+
+1. The directory of the **current document** (`Paths.CurrentFile`), if it
+   has been saved.
+2. Otherwise, the **working directory** (`Paths.WorkingDirectory`).
+
+Notepad3's *install directory* (`Paths.ModuleDirectory`) is **never** used
+as an anchor for in-document references.
+
+### Environment-variable expansion
+
+Tokens containing `%VAR%` are expanded against the current process
+environment before resolution. So `%WINDIR%\notepad.exe` and
+`%USERPROFILE%\Documents\foo.txt` resolve correctly.
+
+### `file://` → Windows path conversion
+
+`file://`-prefixed URLs go through the Windows shell's `PathCreateFromUrlW`
+to convert URL-encoded characters (`%20` → space, etc.) into a real
+filesystem path. If `PathCreateFromUrlW` fails on a malformed URL, the
+prefix is stripped manually and the resolver tries the rest as a best
+effort.
+
+### Long paths (`\\?\` prefix)
+
+When **Open Containing Folder of Selection** hands a path to the Windows
+shell, the long-path prefix `\\?\` is stripped first so Explorer can accept
+the path:
+
+- `\\?\C:\Windows` → `C:\Windows`
+- `\\?\UNC\server\share\file.txt` → `\\server\share\file.txt`
+
+Internally Notepad3 uses long-path-aware Win32 wrappers throughout. If
+Windows' long-path support (`LongPathsEnabled` group policy) is off and a
+path is ≥ 260 characters, Notepad3 applies the `\\?\` prefix transparently
+where necessary.
+

+
+## 4. Path-related menu commands
+
+### File menu
+
+| Command | What it does |
+|---|---|
+| **Open…** (Ctrl+O) | Standard file-open dialog. |
+| **Open with…** (Alt+L) | Hand the current file to an external editor — choose via `OpenWithDir` setting. |
+| **Recent Files** (sub-menu) | Most-recently-used list. Paths are stored relative to Notepad3.exe by default — flip via the `Notepad3.ini` redirect mechanism. |
+| **Save** / **Save As…** / **Save Copy…** | Standard write paths; respects `AtomicFileSave` (see §5). |
+| **Open File Explorer** | Reveal the **current document** in Windows Explorer (or, if untitled, the working directory). Distinct from **Open Containing Folder of Selection**, which operates on text *inside* the document. |
+| **Path to Clipboard → Copy Filename only / Copy Directory-Path only / Copy Full-Path** | Self-explanatory; for filling into other tools. |
+| **Add to Favorites** / **Favorites…** | Pin a path to a quick-pick list, stored under `FavoritesDir`. |
+| **Launch Default Application** (Ctrl+L) | ShellExecute the current document with its registered "open" verb. |
+| **Run…** | ShellExecute an arbitrary command line, prefilled with the document's full path. |
+
+### Edit menu
+
+| Command | What it does |
+|---|---|
+| **Edit → Miscellaneous → Open Containing Folder of Selection** | See §2. |
+| **Edit → Miscellaneous → Open File from Selection** | See §2. |
+| **Edit → Insert → Filename / Directory / Path** | Insert the current document's name / parent dir / full path into the buffer at the caret. |
+
+---
+
+## 5. Background behavior
+
+These mechanisms aren't user-triggered but are worth knowing about because
+they affect what you'll see on disk.
+
+### File watching
+
+Notepad3 asks Windows to notify it of changes in the **parent directory**
+of the open file. When the current file changes externally, the **File
+Change Notification** dialog offers to reload (or you can configure silent
+reload). The watch is released before *Save* and re-armed afterwards so
+Notepad3 doesn't observe its own writes.
+
+### Atomic save
+
+With `AtomicFileSave=true` (the default), *Save* writes to a temporary file
+alongside the target and then atomically replaces the original via
+`ReplaceFileW`. ACLs, alternate data streams, and attributes are preserved
+on failure — nothing is lost if the write is interrupted. See
+[`../config/Configuration.md#atomicfilesave-true`](../config/Configuration.md#atomicfilesavetrue)
+to disable on very large files where in-place writing is faster.
+
+### MRU (Most-Recently-Used) list
+
+The Recent Files list in the File menu is persisted in `Notepad3.ini` under
+`[Recent Files]`. Disable persistence with the `NoSaveRecent` setting.
+Entries can be removed individually from the MRU dialog.
+
+### Portable & redirected INI
+
+By default `Notepad3.ini` lives next to `Notepad3.exe` (portable mode). The
+file `Notepad3.ini` itself can specify a `Notepad3.ini=<path>` redirect
+under `[Notepad3]` (up to two levels) that points at a per-user location —
+useful for shared installs. The redirected file is auto-created on first
+write.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Configuration keys that affect path handling
+
+All in `Notepad3.ini` under `[Settings2]` unless noted — see
+[`../config/Configuration.md`](../config/Configuration.md) for full
+descriptions.
+
+| Key | Effect |
+|---|---|
+| `AtomicFileSave` | Two-phase Save (temp file + ReplaceFileW). |
+| `ResolveUNCPaths` | When opening a UNC path that's actually a mapped drive's share, prefer the drive-letter form for display. |
+| `DefaultDirectory` | Initial directory of the **Open…** dialog. |
+| `OpenWithDir` | Directory used by **Open with…**. |
+| `FavoritesDir` | Where the Favorites list lives. |
+| `GrepWinPath` | Override the grepWin executable lookup. |
+| `HyperlinkShellExURLWithApp` | Open URLs with a specific external app instead of the OS default. |
+| `HyperlinkShellExURLCmdLnArgs` | Argument template for the above. |
+| `HyperlinkFileProtocolVerb` | Override the verb used to ShellExecute `file:` URLs. |
+| `ShowHypLnkToolTip` | Hover tooltip showing the link target. |
+| `MonitoringLog` | `FileWatching.MonitoringLog`; tails the file by default. |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Troubleshooting
+
+**Q. My path has spaces and the resolver only picked up part of it.**
+Wrap it in double quotes or single quotes in the source text, or select the
+full path manually before invoking the command.
+
+**Q. `..\..\foo.c:42` opened the wrong file.**
+Save your document first — relative paths anchor to the document's
+directory only after it has been saved. Until then, they anchor to the
+working directory.
+
+**Q. A path is highlighted but Alt+Click does nothing.**
+Notepad3 silently does nothing when the resolved path doesn't exist on
+disk. Check the path with **Open Containing Folder of Selection** — it will
+beep if the resolution fails.
+
+**Q. `C:\Windows` isn't highlighted as a hotspot.**
+By design — bare paths are only hotspotted when they end in a line spec
+(`:42`, `:42:7`, or `(42)`). For paths without a line number, use the
+selection-based commands instead.
+
+**Q. The line jump for `foo.c:42:7` ignores `7`.**
+The column is parsed and accepted but not currently acted on — only the
+line is set. Tracked for a future enhancement.
+
+**Q. `file:///D:/docs/readme.md#section-2` doesn't jump to the anchor.**
+Heading-anchor resolution is a Markdown-specific convention and isn't
+implemented — the fragment is stripped and the file opens at the top.
