I assume it's possible and I remember a related discussion (maybe about those links in HTML), but I didn't find it. I tried to use intuitively this syntax (it doesn't work): [[file:proj.org#*some heading]] This is similar to [[gnus:group#id]]. This syntax would disallow using # in a file name, but I think this is reasonable to do. It can be escaped with [#] like spaces. Whether org uses this syntax or another, no example of this appears at http://orgmode.org/manual/External-links.html#External-links . It could be added there. Thanks, Daniel
