<![CDATA[developer, browse sites .local without http]]>Hi, I develop web sites, when working locally, I use .local extentions on the url, how can I configure opera to browse those sites without using http on the address instead of using the search engine?

thanks

$ file sergeistrelec.ru.URL
sergeistrelec.ru.URL: MS Windows 95 Internet shortcut text (URL=<http://sergeistrelec.ru/>), ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators

If it is like .url, there may be a solution.
