The TWCore uses regular expressions to parse the tiddler content
syntax.  Included in that is a pattern that defines what the TWCore
sees as "external links".  Here's the standard definition:

config.textPrimitives.urlPattern="(?:file|http|https|mailto|ftp|irc|
news|data):[^\\s'\"]+(?:/|\\b)";

To customize this pattern for your purposes, you would add "x-
devonthink-item" to the list of protocols (file, http, https, etc.),
like this:

config.textPrimitives.urlPattern="(?:file|http|https|mailto|ftp|irc|
news|data|x-devonthink-item):[^\\s'\"]+(?:/|\\b)";

To apply this change to your documents, just place the above code (all
on one line [1]) in a new tiddler, e.g. [[DevonThinkLinkPlugin]], and
tag it with "systemConfig".  Save-and-reload, and the TWCore will then
recognize the 'x-devonthink-item:' prefix as an external link.  QED.

[1] note: GoogleGroups adds word-wrapping newlines to posts.  This
often messes up any code that is posted.  Make sure you remove all
newlines from the above code snippets.

enjoy,
