Is that generally possible? Is the console able to format a link so that it is clickable? i.e. a link that launches an application, or anything else when clicked?

+2  A: 

No, not unless your terminal supports it, and most terminals I know of don't support such a feature. If your terminal does support hyperlinks, read up on its documentation -- there's probably some escape sequence analogous to ANSI escape codes for doing so.

And that's assuming that he's using a terminal and not Xcode. Xcode definitely does not support any such feature; the Run Log is plain text only.
