Subject: [Emacs-orgmode] cannot store link to an info ode?
Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2011 22:54:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <80ipxrf8wl.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I am restarting this very old thread:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2006-05/msg00121.html

see also 

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-12/msg01229.html

I realized that `M-x org-store-link' does now work with info nodes, and
that the info nodes links are correctly followed and documented.

The link format is like this:

[[info:org.info:External%20links][some description]]

This format contradicts the assumption made in the URL package,
according to URL documentation the format should have been

[[info:org.info#External%20links][some description]]

i.e. the second colon is a sharp instead.

I am not saying that URL is correct and org wrong, but at least there
should be something done for ensuring compatibility (like asking URL
maintainer to support also Org format, or implementing also the URL
format in org)

I am also wondering why Org did not align on the convention made by
URL which seems to be earlier. 

Finally I make again the same suggestion, it would be good to have also
a line pointer, especially as it seems that the latest version of info
also have a line pointer in the index nodes.

VBR,
   Vincent.
