Feature request: Support for '.' in links

[Hocnonsense]

I think . is not always at the end of a work. For example, a file is named version0.0.1.md can never be recognized. However, if it is created and maintained by other programs, I cannot rename it manually. Also, it is impossible to link a norm with . like tar.gz.

I guess it is caused by forward searching of .. If so, is it possible to find it reversely? To think more bravely, if there is a text file or any other format, we can use ![[filename.extention]] to show its content. In general, it is worth to be fixed!

Similar request:

• Include '.md' in links #299
• Absolute link not working when markdown file has dot (.) in filename? #339

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for filing an issue.

Would you like to contribute?

I'm looking at the code, but I think I'm not familiar with TS...

I notice it is not easy as I found this:

btw tar.gz shouldn't be a problem it just not amongst recognized formats, formats are whitelisted for perf reasons to scan less files on initial load.

Also reverse search already in use with known extensions as you mentioned so the problem is different in this case.

should be fixed for long links in v0.3.7, short links worked as expected

Thanks! It did work! Grateful for your help 😃
