Allow to set :follow link parameter for "file" links

Allow to set :follow link parameter for "file" links

[Johan Tolö]

Hi all,

For some time I have been using the suggestion by John Kitchin at:

https://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2016/11/04/New-link-features-in-org-9/#orgc074278

to "improve" the file link. Since upgrading org mode it no longer 
works. I believe it was caused by the changes introduced with 
commit: afd3b04ec 

Perhaps there is a better way to do this now?

Kind regards,
Johan

Have you tried configuring org-file-apps to use a similar function?
