A "good writing experience" includes a "good editing experience", or so I think. I'm suggesting to solve some problems related to the latter, under certain circumstances I explained in my original post.=20 The `org-link' face is not enough, as pointed out, because it's not a matter of making the links stand out in the buffer. > Cl=C3=A9ment suggestion of a using something akin to prettify symbols mod= e is > great, though. We could limit the length of the url being shown. It can > always be edited with e.g. "C-c =E2=80=99" or, as currently, "C-c C-l". The problem is not really about editing the link itself, but editing around the link. The problem also arises for the text just before or just after the link. "C-c C-l" cannot help here. I cannot tell, however, if Cl=C3=A9ment's suggestion is good or not. This is why I'd like to see a mock of the result, if anyone wants to implement one. Regards, --=20 Nicolas Goaziou
