Describe the solution you'd like?

I use the Zed editor (specifically the preview version located at /Applications/Zed Preview.app). There is currently a setting to open file links in Default, VSCode, or Cursor. I can't change the default for all files on my OS to Zed, so Default doesn't work for me. And because I don't use VSCode or Cursor, those don't help. So I'm stuck copying the file paths and opening them manually in Zed.

It would be nice if Warp supported "Zed" and "Zed Preview" natively, or provided a "Custom" option, which when selected, allows me to provide a filepath and template variables (e.g. /Applications/Zed Preview.app/Contents/MacOS/zed -a {{path}}).

Hey @KieranP thanks for this feature request! Currently, Warp supports opening file links in several GUI-based editors, including Zed. You can select Zed as your default editor in Warp by going to Settings > Features > General > "Choose an editor to open file links". However, Warp does not currently provide a "Custom" option that allows you to specify an arbitrary command or path (such as a specific version of Zed, like "Zed Preview") with template variables for opening files. The list of supported editors is fixed, and while Zed is included, there is no built-in way to add custom editors or specify custom launch commands at this time.
