Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.513.g2a5877) GNU Emacs 24.0.50.3 (i386-apple-darwin9.8.0, NS apple-appkit-949.54) of 2011-08-10 on braeburn.aquamacs.org - Aquamacs Distribution 3.xdev On Tue, Nov 1, 2011 at 22:02, Jeff Horn <jrhorn...@gmail.com> wrote: > Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.404.ga17c.dirty) > GNU Emacs 24.0.50.3 (i386-apple-darwin9.8.0, NS apple-appkit-949.54) > of 2011-08-10 on braeburn.aquamacs.org - Aquamacs Distribution 3.xdev > > Inserting a link through the link dialog doesn't escape URLs with > spaces properly.
