Hi all!

Forgive me if this has already been implemented, but I couldn't see it...

I'm looking for something similar to the "extract method" operation
which refactoring IDEs can perform on code.  You would select a
headline (or maybe even region), hit `refile-and-link', and then after
the normal refiling, a link to the refiled section would be inserted
in the place where the refiled section previously lived.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
Adam

+1

Since the destination is known after the refiling it may not be difficult.
I say this but I'am not an elisp literate ;-)

I don't know of a command that does this.

The last refile location is stored in org-bookmark-names-plist. The
(lightly tested) function below uses that information to create a link
to the refiled heading.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun org-refile-and-link ()
    "Refile heading, adding a link to the new location.
  Prefix arguments are interpreted by `org-refile'."
    (interactive)
    (when (member current-prefix-arg '(3 (4) (16)))
      (user-error "Linking is incompatible with that prefix argument"))
    (let ((heading  (org-get-heading t t))
          (orig-file (buffer-file-name)))
      (call-interactively #'org-refile)
      (let* ((refile-file
              (bookmark-get-filename
               (assoc (plist-get org-bookmark-names-plist :last-refile)
                      bookmark-alist)))
             (same-file (string= orig-file refile-file))
             (link (if same-file
                       (concat "*" heading)
                     (concat refile-file "::*" heading)))
             (desc heading))
        (open-line 1)
        (insert (org-make-link-string link desc)))))
#+end_src

Thanks a lot!  I've noticed a couple of minor issues - hopefully I'll
fix them when I get time and then maybe submit a patch.
