Why is there no Neovim in Editor in pkl.settings ?
There is a plugin for Neovim that could be added.

Right now, the Editors are only used to format the URIs of the file references in error messages (producing idea://path/to/file.pkl when you use Idea, for example. Are there setups where having a clickable link in the terminal to open neovim makes sense? I always use neovim in terminal only and then there's no clicking involved.

If there is, and there is a canonical URI form; happy to take a PR or to follow up at some later stage.

I did the following. I don't need the clickable links, but it means that when I run pkl eval in a Neovim terminal, I can use gF to jump to the file at the correct line.

amends "pkl:settings"

// Custom URL scheme to make gF work in Neovim.
editor = (Editor) {
  urlScheme = "%{path}:%{line}:%{column}"
}
