Dendron: Go to is a command that lets you navigate to a link under your cursor. This command works on all link types and have different behavior depending on the type of link.
Links with relative paths will be opened relative to the vault that the note is located.
Links to external files or web address
When this command is used on a link to an external file or web address, the link will be opened by the system's default application.
Links to notes
When this command is used on a link to a note, the behavior is identical to Dendron: Go to Note
