Instead of the `index`, you can also use `ID` or `name`.
OpenDrop will try to interpret the input in the order (1) `index`, (2) `ID`, and (3) `name` and fail if no match was found.
**Sending a web link.** Since v0.13, OpenDrop supports sending web links, i.e., URLs, so that receiving Apple devices will immediately open their browser upon accepting.
(Note that OpenDrop _receivers_ still only support receiving regular files.)
