Well, you would have to write it by yourself but the functions are available. You can use `org-next-link' to make point jump to the next link in buffer. This function will throw an error if there is no next link, so wrap it in a (condition case ...) statement. For each link, look what type of link it is. Assuming all links in question are bracket links, use `org-bracket-link-analytic-regexp', a variable with a regexp that breaks down the parsed link into its parts. (when (looking-at org-bracket-link-analytic-regexp) ... ) Check the link type (it is a match string, check the doc string of org-bracket-link-analytic-regexp), grab the link (another match string). Now normalize the link to the file by stripping a possible fragment part (e.g. it might be: foo.org#id, strip the #id) (if (string-match "\\([^#]*\\)#" <path>) (setq <path> (match-string 1 <path>))) Now use (file-exist-p <path>) to check if the file exist and do something.
