Hi,
I try to use a function proposed with org-protocol as explained in this link.
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.html#sec-2
I would like to launch a pdf file in Acrobat Reader and to use org-store-
link.js to capture the full path of the document in an org file.I try to use
what it was explained on the link I have already and I have a look on the
following link.
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/6810
It doesn't work as I expect.
As I just want to capture the full path of the file (example here is file.pdf
in C:\Temp), I use the following javascript call org-store-link accessible in
menu File of Acrobat Reader :
app.addMenuItem({cName:"org-store-link", cParent:"File",
cExec:"app.launchURL('org-protocol://store-link://'+
encodeURIComponent(this.URL));"});
I get the following string given to org-protocol:
org-protocol://store-link://file%3A%2F%2F%2FC%7C%2FTemp%2Ffile.pdf
There is several issue. The escaped character is not interpreted when feed in
emacs and when I use C-c C-l (org-insert-link) I have the following
proposition :
file: (C|).
Then I try the following script, to get '/' character to feed org-protocol:
app.addMenuItem({cName:"org-store-link", cParent:"File",
cExec:"app.launchURL('org-protocol://store-link://'+ unescape
(encodeURIComponent(this.URL)).replace('|',':'));"});
I get the following the expected string :
org-protocol://store-link://file:///C:/Temp/File.pdf
Again when I use C-c C-l, I have the proposition : file: (C|).
I made the assumption that it is a problem of interpretation of '/'.Then I
replace this character with "++".
app.addMenuItem({cName:"org-store-link", cParent:"File",
cExec:"app.launchURL('org-protocol://store-link://'+ unescape
(encodeURIComponent(this.URL)).replace('|',':').replace('\/','++','gi'));"});
Then I obtain the following string :
org-protocol://store-link://file:++++++C:++Temp++File.pdf
This time when I use C-c C-l, I have the proposition :
file:++++++C:++Temp++File.pdf
So I can get the full path when I replace afterwards each '++' to '/'.
Quite tricky to get the final full link !!
Do you have a more direct and simplest way to get the direct right link ?

This indicates that .replace('|',':') didn't work out as expected and
org-protocol received
org-protocol://store-link://file%3A%2F%2F%2FC%7C%2FTemp%2Ffile.pdf
^^^
Maybe this could do the trick:
,----
| app.addMenuItem({cName:"org-store-link", cParent:"File",
| cExec:"app.launchURL('org-protocol://store-link://'+ unescape
| (encodeURIComponent(this.URL.replace('|',':'))));"});
`----
I.e. replace | by : in the original URL before encoding it.
Best,

Indeed I get the corresponding character.
org-protocol://store-link://file:///C:/Temp/file.pdf
The problem of the bad interpretation of the character "/" still remains when
I go back to emacs. I get the following proposition when I use C-c C-l : file:
(C:).
Thank you for your help.
