According to the Org manual a link to an external org file can have
the form "file:projects.org::some words" to allow a hyper jump to the
first occurrence of "some words" within another org file. But why
restrict this to org files? It seems this should work with any text
file; and when I try the same thing with a LaTeX file, for example,
"file:file.tex::\label{theorem-B}" where "file.tex" contains
"\label{theorem-B}", it seems to work in the same way as for an
external org file. Is this a feature I can rely on for any arbitrary
text file?

Ok, I see that "4.7 Search options in file links" generalizes the info
in "4.3 External links" and includes my case, sorry for the noise.

A good way to determin this is using capture from the file you want
and look at the link it creates.

I assume you are referring to org-store-link, and yes this is helpful.
