Add ability to attach files to messages

[sferik]

This would be so awesome.

iirc, iMessage only allows image files, contact cards and whatever format location pins are in, correct?

[sferik]

@DeMarko I think PDFs are and few other files types are also allowed. As far as I know, there’s no specification, since iMessage is not an open standard. Images would be my top priority but the ability to attach arbitrary files would be fantastic.

@sferik ah, yeah, I think the files allowed are "Files that can be opened by Preview.app"

[sferik]

@DeMarko I believe this also includes thinks like iWork documents and possibly even Microsoft Office documents. But again, I don’t care as much about these as I do about photos.
