Hello Alan,
I think you overlooked one aspect of org-fstree.
If you place a link to a file in the org file (outside the region
between BEGIN_FSTREE and END_FSTREE), e.g:
* Some note [[file:foobar][foobar]] :someTag:
then this heading will show up behind the file in the fstree as a link
back:
#+BEGIN_FSTREE: some_path
...
** [ ] foobar { [[* Some note][Some note]] } :someTag:
...
#+END_FSTREE
I see that it could in some cases be comfortable to add notes directly
at the file's entry and make them persistent on update. I might write a
function that automatically inserts a heading for the currently selected
file outside the fstree block, if time allows.
I'm looking for a better way to display those links and possibly also
the content of the headings and am happy to receive new ideas. I tried the
column view, but properties that contain links are displayed as text.
Andreas
