I use evil mode and don't like chorded commands. I have org-ref-insert-cite-link bound to ", r" but that's beside the point, in any case. >> 1.

No. I get prompted for the expression to search for and then I get prompted for an optional argument and the final text inserted in my org buffer is \cite{....}, not cite:.... > I just tried this on a fresh pull and it does work for me.

I have this code somewhere else to build it when needed: I do tangle and then eval-buffer just to make sure I have the right code loaded. >> 2. the link inserted "looks" like a link (it's blue) but there are >> actually no [[...]] characters surrounding it. >> > There are no [[...]].

Well, I obviously have something not quite configured properly in my environment. The cite: text is highlighted as a link in the org buffer (as it should with org-highlight-links set) but is treated as simple text when exported so that I simply get "cite:..." in the latex output. If I "C-c C-l" it and don't add a description, the org buffer *looks* the same but the export works because org and/or the exporter know that it's a link. Is there some org variable I have not set that tells org to treat cite: plain text as a link on export? Obviously org already recognises it as a link but the export doesn't... org-link-protocols and org-link-types look fine. I am most puzzled... :( By the way, in my use case, even if the above would work properly, it would still definitely help if the [[...]] were inserted as I sometimes use superscript indices and in those cases I do not want any whitespace between the text and the citation that follows. Anyway, this is secondary. thanks, eric -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 24.4.50.2, Org release_8.2.6-949-g751506
