Hi,

I am looking for a feature (script) which automatically
updates my file links!? It probably want work out of
the box, but I think it would be really great to have it...
Maybe, a way to update directory links would work with
adding a 'search-file' into each linked-directory, which
corresponds to the inserted directory-link. The updating
script should search for those directly connected files on
the disk and corrects the link...!?
Maybe, someone has such a feature already? I would be great!

Regards!
Fabian

I'd think about writing an org link handler that uses locate (or
perhaps beagle or tracker) to search for its arguments, and replace
your file: links with locate: beagle:, or whatever.

For cases where files are moved from within Emacs (with dired-mode), we
could use org-registry. It would fetch references to the moved files and
update these references with the new location.  But org-registry is just
out, I need a rest :)

org-registry sounds great!? :-)
