Setting up org-ctags and exporting ctags links

Setting up org-ctags and exporting ctags links

[Juan Reyero]

Greetings,

I've just installed org-ctags in my system and it works beautifully.
One note, though, for those of you running on OS-X: you need to setq
org-ctags-path-to-ctags pointing to your ctags executable before
requiring org-ctags, otherwise it fails as it tries to call a
non-existing (operating-system) function.

Also, there was some talk a while ago about exporting the org-ctags
links; Carsten pointed out that a function that returns the target's
filename was required
(http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg20565.html) and
Paul wrote org-ctags-get-filename-for-tag for this purpose.  I wonder,
has anybody used it to actually export HTML with ctags links?  I'd
like my web publishing to take advantage of the great ctags package.

Best,

Juan

Hmm.  Maybe we could actually use executable-find to initialize
the variable.  I'll look into it.

This part is not yet implemented.  Patches welcome!
