In short, on linux, it does not work by default, as Chrome insists on using the OS to open the link, more specifically gvfs-open. This program, on the other hand, has a long-standing bug which makes it unable to handle encoded URI's. If the URI is fed to it unencoded, then org-protocol is not able to separate the different parts of the argument as it uses internally '/' as separator. I posted last week-end a patch to this list which adds a variable to org-protocol to use a custom separator. In this case, the URI in Chrome does not need to be encoded, and gvfs-open won't choke on it. I found that a separator like '|||' works perfectly. With this patch, the wiki examples work well, just leave out the encodeRUIComponent-part. It feels stupid to add a custom variable just to circumvent this problem, but the bug in gvfs-open was first reported in something like 2006 and still isn't fixed, so I guess it may not be something to hold one's breath on. The format of the patch was probably not correct as I have no idea whether it made it anywhere from this list, but should be found in the archives around April 14th. Best, Harri K. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Thanks, Seems better but using this bookmark:- ,---- | javascript:location.href='org-protocol://capture://'+ location.href+'/'+ document.title+'/'+ window.getSelection() `---- and this capture template:- ,---- | ("z" "default" entry (file+datetree "journal.org") | "* %^{Title}\n\t:PROPERTIES:\n\t:DateCreated: %T\n\t:END:\n Source: %u, %c\n\n %i" | :empty-lines 1) `---- with org-protocol-default-template-key set to "z" the resulting popup capture buffer still has the incorrect format for the url link. When I C-c C-l on the Source link (%c which is the kill ring head ) I get only "http:" in the Link: field and pressing "enter" on it doesnt do the xpexted thing (open the link). I dont know which side this needs to be fixed : possibly %c needs to be reparsed and constructed as a legitimate org link element? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
