Hello,

I have an elisp link of the form (without spaces, of course)
[ [elisp:(dired-other-window "/path/to/directory/") ][ Directory ] ].

The link works with the directory in appearing in dired window. However,
when I first click on the link, a dialog box is brought up asking me if
a I wish to execute the command. Of course, I do - and I click 'Yes'.

How can I go to link directly without being interrogated by the dialog
box?

Best wishes,

Colin Baxter.

See org-link-elisp-confirm-function.

Thank you. I tried setting 'org-link-elisp-confirm-function' to y-or-n-p
as suggested by ol.el, but it gave me a dialog box, as before, which I
had to click. In the end I've set as to nil as a local variable:

#+begin_src elisp
eval: (set (make-local-variable 'org-link-elisp-confirm-function) nil)
#+end_src

The doc-string says it's risky when used as a local variable, but it
seems to work. The variable returns to the global default 'yes-or-no-p'
when the buffer is killed.

Best wishes,

If you want something a bit more secure you could use a function that
checks the block name ("some-block" in this example). Best!
Tom

(lambda (_lang _body)
   (not
    (string= "some-block"
             (plist-get (cadr (org-element-at-point)) :name))))

#+begin_src elisp
(setq-local
 org-confirm-babel-evaluate
 (lambda (_lang _body)
   (not
    (string= "some-block"
             (plist-get (cadr (org-element-at-point)) :name)))))
#+end_src

#+name: some-block
#+begin_src elisp
(message "yay!")
#+end_src

#+RESULTS: some-block
: yay!

#+name: some-other-block
#+begin_src elisp
(message "I ask to run")
#+end_src

#+RESULTS: some-other-block
: I ask to run

Thanks Tom. I'll try this.

Best wishes,
