4.5 Handling Links
...
‘C-c C-o’ (‘org-open-at-point’)
...
... Furthermore, it visits text and
remote files in ‘file’ links with Emacs and select a suitable
application for local non-text files. Classification of files is
based on file extension only. See option ‘org-file-apps’. If you
want to override the default application and visit the file with
Emacs, use a ‘C-u’ prefix. If you want to avoid opening in Emacs,
use a ‘C-u C-u’ prefix.
