Re: [O] org-mode, file-link, tramp, and smb domain

Hello,

Dov Grobgeld dov.grobg...@gmail.com writes:

 In tramp the syntax for specifying a domain in a smb link is by using a
 percentage sign [1]

 //smb:user%DOMAIN@host:D/path/

 but when trying to use this together with the org-mode file: link the
 result is that it changes %D to ^M (control-M).

This last part is not entirely clear to me. Could you elaborate on what
are you doing exactly to use this together with file: link?

Thank you.

[O] org-mode, file-link, tramp, and smb domain

[Dov Grobgeld]

Hello,

In tramp the syntax for specifying a domain in a smb link is by using a
percentage sign [1]

//smb:user%DOMAIN@host:D/path/

but when trying to use this together with the org-mode file: link the
result is that it changes %D to ^M (control-M). Similar results are gotten
with other characters after the percentage sign. (If the letter is not in
the hexadecimal range, ^@ (null) is received). Even %% does not escape the
percentage sign.

Is there any easy workaround?

Thanks!
Dov

Maybe encode the % using %25 (hex value for %) so ... user%25DOMAIN@ ...?

Untested, mind you!
