I'm trying to write a script for the 1.6 app extension that will:

• Take some text passed in from the share sheet
• Format the text in a specific way
• Place the formatted text on the pasteboard
• Launch Pythonista and run another script that will take the text on the pasteboard and do something with it.

Here's the script:

import appex
import clipboard
import webbrowser 

initial_text = appex.get_text()

# text processing stuff

clipboard.set(processed_text)
webbrowser.open('pythonista://NewFromClipboard.py')

Is it possible to launch a pythonista:// URL from the app extension? If not, is it possible to do something with objc_util?

Worst case, I can make it a two-step process but it would be great to have it in one place.

Thanks. It's not a huge big deal to make it a two-step process. Just glad to know I shouldn't spend any more time on this.
