How do I properly render a private file URI with l()? If given a private file with a uri of private://Screenshot from 2015-12-07 15-52-42_0.png. How might I use l() to properly render the link?



When rendered as follows I see https://server/drupal-private-file-system/Screenshot%20from%202015-12-07%2015-52-42_0.png instead of system/.... in the URL.
The function file_create_url() is what I was after. I'm able to find what I was after with that. 

dpm(file_create_url($file_obj['uri']));
