[PATCH] Kill in eww and keep the links for org

[Marco Wahl <marcowahlsoft@gmail.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 317 bytes --]

Hi,

to kill in a w3m-buffer and yank into an org-mode-buffer by keeping the
links is a long known feature in org-module org-w3m.  The patch below
provides this functionality for eww.  Note that the code is very similar
to the code for the w3m case.

What do you think?  Shall I try to push the code?


Ciao,  Marco

Subject: [PATCH] org-eww.el: Special kill in eww for Org for keeping the links

* contrib/lisp/org-eww.el(org-eww-copy-for-org-mode): Realization of
  the kill.
  (org-eww-goto-next-url-property-change,
  org-eww-no-next-link-p, org-eww-url-below-point,
  org-eww-url-below-point-p): Auxiliaries for accessing a eww buffer

The code has emerged from the very similar org-w3m.el.
