Typo. Meant to be org-store-link. > i am also unclear on why we have a dedicated paste function as opposed > to kill ring. probably a good reason. but wfm. This is because a workflow of opening the link target, storing it, and then inserting the stored link is not the only workflow we support. Another workflow is running M-x org-insert-link <RET> type <RET> select location using completion. For example, you do not have to open a file to store link to that file. Instead, you can directly type M-x org-insert-link <RET> file <RET> /path/to/file <RET>. When selecting path to file, the standard file completion interface will be used. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
