That is exactly what I am thinking of. But the key binding could perhaps be rethought. Beside that I would want som unification of link handling where it is possible. Things to uniffy are for example: - Mouse handling - Keyboard keys - Opening in windows/frames - Opening in external apps - Moving between links - Coordination with moving between widget and buttons (like "tab stops" in common GUIs) - Link faces - Link information _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
