>> Thanks for your reply. In my personal case I've modified "org-open-file" to throw an error for a non-existing file. In my case, clearly Emacs is not happy with a non-existing file--at least if it is a PDF file meant to be viewed by docview. Option 1 could have "org-docview-open" throw an error for a non-existing file, I suppose. You describe option 2 as risking existing configs. I am uninformed on such an issue. I only use Org from within Emacs. If a future problem occurs because I modified "org-open-file", I'll deal with it when it occurs.
