Hi!
I'd like to create a link like
[[file:~/share/all/org-mode/contacts.org::*foo][company:foo]]
... and therefore I created:
,----[ ~/snippets/org-mode/vkcomp ]
| # name : expand link to company
| # --
| [[file:~/share/all/org-mode/contacts.org::*$1][company:$1]] $0
`----
But: unfortunately my Org-mode behaves strangely when applying the
snippet: "company:" with blinking cursor in the «c» which does not
let me enter the string which replaces «$1».
I guess this is related to «hiding the actual link when a
description is set».
Can I define a snippet which behaves like following? After entering
the snippet command and pressing TAB, I get the chance to type «foo»
part and after another TAB, the link as stated above is finished and
the cursor is at the end.
Thanks!

Hi Karl,
I do not know how to accomplish this with a single field but the
following workaround might be sufficient:
,----[ ~/snippets/org-mode/vkcomp ]
| # name : expand link to company
| # --
| [[file:~/share/all/org-mode/contacts.org::*$1][${2:$$(unless yas/modified-p
| (let ((field (nth 0 (yas/snippet-fields (first (yas/snippets-at-point))))))
| (concat "companie: "
| (and field (buffer-substring
| (yas/field-start field)
| (yas/field-end field))))))]] $0
`----
As long as the first field is active the second one is empty, thus, no
troublesome link hiding will occur. As I said, this isn't exactly what
you were asking for, since you have to press TAB a second time to
actually exit the snippet.
Best regards,
Bianca.

I just realized that the test for field being non-nil is superfluous
in the example below -- the usual copy and paste mess got me. Thus,
you may omit it, i.e. use
(concat "companie: " (buffer-substring ...))
instead of
(concat "companie: " (and field (buffer-substring ...)))

This works great! Thank you for the code!
