Aloha Bastien,

Thanks for adding this.  I work with literal links and this potentially
saves time and effort.

I wonder if I'm using it correctly?  In .emacs I set
org-link-display-descriptive nil and have:

--------
org-link-display-descriptive is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Its value is nil

Documentation:
Non-nil means Org will display descriptive links.
E.g. [[http://orgmode.org][Org website]] will be displayed as
"Org Website", hiding the link itself and just displaying its
description.  When set to `nil', Org will display the full links
literally.

You can interactively set the value of this variable using the
`org-toggle-link-display'.
--------

But when I open an Org-mode buffer I find the links displayed
descriptively.  The menu Org/Hyperlinks/Literal Links is checked at this
time.  If I call org-toggle-link-display twice, then literal links are
displayed.

All the best,
Tom
