Hi, When working with org-capture and inserting links to files, I noticed that some files do not open properly and found out that the filename contains "&" which causes this issue.
To replicate: - Create a file test_&_file.txt - In dired, locate the file and capture the link C-c l - In an org file, insert link by C-c C-l - Place point at file and C-c C-o (org-open-at-point) The link org stores is e.g "~/test_&_file.txt". This cannot be opened in a shell, but escaping the ampersand, the file is opened fine, e.g. evince ~/test_\&_file.txt I inserted the escape character in the org link, but this to my dismay still doesn't work. Any ideas? (except the obvious change of ampersand in filenames) Thanks, Johnny -- Johnny
