Dear all,
I want to add my own org-element affiliated keyword "REF" in order
to provide a reference to some other part of an org mode document
(or another document) for a link.
For example:
#+NAME: a-figure
#+REF: [[file:another_document.org]]
[[file:a-figure.png]]
I want to use `org-element-context' to get the link element and
use `org-element-property' to get the `REF' property.
I tried changing `org-element-affiliated-keywords' in order to
define my own keyword. This is never picked up by
`org-element-context' since it uses `org-element--affiliated-re'
which is defined as a const and thus is never updated to reflect
the change to `org-element-affiliated-keywords'. The help text for
`org-element--affiliated-re' even mentions changing
`org-element-affiliated-keywords'.
Is this an oversight or am I trying to use this is a way that is
not intended?
Johan

Syntax is not meant to be changed by users. Also,
`org-element-affiliated-keywords' is a defconst.
You might abuse #+header: affiliated keyword to add a reference.

Oh, yes you are of course right. Somehow I got the definition
mixed up, must have been looking at the definition in
'org-pcomplete.el' or something. Sorry about that.

OK, thanks. I will give it a try.
