The attached file implements a new link type "eshell". An eshell link consists of an optional buffer name followed by a colon, and of an eshell command line. Opening the link switches to the indicated buffer, creating it if necessary, or to the default *eshell* buffer, and executes the command line exactly as if it were entered from the keyboard. Inside an eshell buffer, org-store-link stores a link that switches back to the same buffer and does a  cd to the current working directory.

I'd be happy to contribute this file to org-mode if there is interest.

Konrad.

Hi Konrad, this looks good.

Have you signed papers with the FSF, or do we have to make this a  
contributed file?

I have started the FSF process in december, and got a message yesterday that the papers to be signed are on the way to me. I have no idea how long this will take, unfortunately.

Hi Konrad,

I suggest then that we install this as a contrib package - and once  
you have the assignment finished, we can move it.

This has been done now - eshell links can be activated through org- 
modules.
