I do not want to give up that link into dired while working in Emacs - and I believe upon exporting, the link will end up pointing to the directory, which in HML will read index.html. - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

This is a standard - and what I use. It just means C-C C-o does not open the link to the file. But if people prefer dired to come up on such a link I can see that might be beneficial to some too. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I depends on application. In a web publishing project, I agree that opening index.org might be the most useful approach. However, when using Org for notes, planning etc, I frequently rely on the ability to link to a dired list of a directory. Maybe is is worth an option...... - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Yes, I am being a bit "html centric" here since that's what I'm working. Maybe a nicer generic solution is to have a standard file select in the minibuffer with completion when there is no file name. Just hit enter then to select dired at that directory or "i TAB" for index.org for example (I use icicles completion here). Not serious or must have but maybe nice to have at some time. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

No, I prefer an option. It is not a good idea to be bothered with this decision each time you want to follow a link.
