can an annotation provide a link to a webpage?

[speedwaystar]

the standard lua library annotations provide links to the lua documentation pdf which open in a side panel e.g:

---[View documents](command:extension.lua.doc?["en-us/51/manual.html/pdf-math.acos"])

which looks like

is there a similar syntax which links to a web page?

context: i'm writing a libray of metas for World of Warcraft addons, and would like to link to, e.g. https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/API_GetSpellInfo

[carsakiller]

---[View documents](command:extension.lua.doc?["en-us/51/manual.html/pdf-math.acos"]) executes a VS Code command that then launches a webview that shows the locally stored documentation.

It does not allow for anyone to link to documentation that lives elsewhere. This is a good thing though as it could open some serious security holes.

In your case, it would be best to just do a simple markdown link that will open the user's browser:
---[View Documentation](https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/API_GetSpellInfo)
