Hi guys,
Is it a good idea to use environment variables in the links referenced in a
org file? e.g.
[[$mydata/myfigure.pdf]]
If so how to achieve this?
Many thanks,
Zhihao

How do you want Org to behave when the user clicks the link?

I would try in-line source blocks.

Thanks for your reply. I found controlling the environment outside org is
much better and stopped thinking this direction.
Cheers,
Zhihao
