Hi,
One featurette that i would find useful is the possibility of
distinguising link types visually: for instance, having the link text
overlay display an additional mark (say, a * or a fancy unicode arrow)
when it is an http[s] or ftp link (as opposed to a link to a local file,
email, etc.). If providing the basic functionality is not difficult, one
can think of additional customizability like associating different
markers to different protocols and so on.
On a related note, it would also be useful to have a mode or command to
see the URL of the current link echo-ed in the minibuffer. I currently
use a quick-and-dirty command for that (it also puts the link in the
kill ring for convenience):
(defun jao-org-copy-link-at-point ()
(interactive)
(if (thing-at-point-looking-at "\\[\\[\\([^]]+\\)\\]\\[[^]]+\\]\\]")
(let ((link (substring-no-properties (match-string 1))))
(kill-new link)
(message "%s" link))
(message "No link at point")))
(define-key org-mode-map "\C-cv" 'jao-org-copy-link-at-point)
but this doesn't work as an 'show link in the mini-buffer, in the sense
that i have to press C-cv to see the link.
What do you think?
Cheers,
jao
