[O] Emacs completion on file:xyz links?
I often find reference files in org-files and then do the following sequence: * Press Ctrl-x Ctrl-f * Navigate to the requested file by the emacs and completion * Press Ctrl-a Ctrl-k to copy * Press Ctrl-g to get out of file-open * Paste with ctrl-y I was wondering if anyone has written code so that pressing [TAB] within a file:/ link would do emacs completion in place? Thanks! Dov

It does that already. Use C-c C-l to insert a link, when prompted for the type, say file: RET. Then you can use the usual emacs completeion interface to get filename completeion. What is missing though is completion when editing an existing link. IMO, that would be a worthy feature request. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
