Well, one could also say [[shell:cat ~/tmp | grep "asdf :: "]] is link
syntax, no matter how you look at it.  It is a question of precedence.
I think it is more obvious to interpret

   * [[ ... :: ... ]] ....

as a link syntax rather than a descrition list entry.

But even if the * .... :: syntax takes precedence, then the folowing
should work, I think, but it does not.

   * test :: [[shell:cat ~/tmp | grep "asdf :: "]]

If I klick on the link, I still get the errror message "No link found".

Best regards,

Josef.
