[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 783 bytes --]

Attached patch affects how 'info' links in org mode are converted to HTML
links.  Today info links such as

    [[info:emacs#List Buffers]]

are converted to this HTML link:

    <a href="emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>

With the patch applied, the HTML link generated would be

    <a href="
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List
Buffers</a>

The general idea is that couple of list variables describe how to map
info file names to URLs so that those URL's would be used if available.

One motivation for this patch is to make it easy for elisp package
authors to to create links to wonderful emacs documents, because writing
an org info-link to emacs manual in org files is trivial once you know
the info node name.

That looks great; if it's accepted, I /immediatelly/ fetch the
bleeding-edge Org and start using it!!!

My use case is writing blog posts about Emacs using Org.

Thank you. Some comments follow.

> +(defvar org-info-emacs-documents

I suggest to use `defconst' instead, since you're not modifying or
let-binding the variable whatsoever.

The first sentence in the docstring is expected to be on a single line,
e.g.

  "List of emacs documents available.
  Taken from <http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/.>"

> +(defvar org-info-other-documents

`defconst'

Could you also write an entry about it in ORG-NEWS?

Nicolas,

I made all the changes that you suggested in the attached patch.
Please let me know if further changes are needed.

I mailed in my signed licensing paper for emacs to FSF today, so that it
FSF should get it later this week.
