The manual says: If you place the cursor at the beginning or just behind the end of the displayed text and press , you will remove the (invisible) bracket at that location. The problem for me it that it depends on the way I arrive at those locations. For example, for '[[xx]]', seen as 'xx' underlined, if I have the cursor on the right of it and have it go towards the left just after the second 'x' and press , then the behavior is as I expect (I see '[[xx]'), but, if I have the cursor on the left and have it go to towards the right just after the second 'x' and press , then I see a single underlined 'x' (after a second I see '[[]]'). Is this normal=3F (tested with emacs -Q with master, with emacs 24.5.1= and 26.1) Incidentally, is there a way to have things like [[xx]] behave as plain text=3F (I am not talking about literal links which are still understood as links.) I have tried 'quote', 'verse', 'verbatim', 'comment', 'example', and org code block: none work. In the case of 'example' the 'xx' string is not underlined, yet hitting on it generates "org-link-search: No match for fuzzy expression: xx". In the case of an org code block the 'xx' remains underlined but on it generates "Evaluate this org code block on your system=3F (yes or= no)", which is strange to me... PS: for me this is not a theoretical issue: In many circumstances I would like '[[xx]]' instances not behave as links. I would be happy if I could change the link format (e.g., use {{xx}} instead -- is it possible=3F (I fear it is not.) Thank you.
