Hi all,

I want to find an Org headline in Elisp.  No need to make it visible,
for example - just move the point to the heading with a given title (it
may even be within `save-excursion', as in "go there, do something, go
back").  `org-link-search' seems to do what I want, but it does a lot
more - is there some simpler function to do that?

TIA,

i have e.g. (let (org-refile-target-verify-function) (org-refile '(4))
for interactive; ther emight be a place to put the header name or id.

Do any of

org-find-top-headline
org-find-exact-heading-in-directory
org-find-exact-headline-in-buffer

do what you want?
