Is there a way to print an clickable link to the console?

cocoa, cocoa-touch, objective-c, xcode

Solution

No, not unless your terminal supports it, and most terminals I know of don't support such a feature. If your terminal does support hyperlinks, read up on its documentation -- there's probably some escape sequence analogous to ANSI escape codes for doing so.

Problem

Is that generally possible? Is the console able to format a link so that it is clickable? i.e. a link that launches an application, or anything else when clicked?
