Re: [O] mailto link with a subject and a content

2015-01-16 Thread Christian Moe

Hi,

This works fine for me with mu4e as the mail client. It's not guaranteed
to work with every client, but it can be a solution for personal
use. It's not necessarily the best solution.

The general syntax is mailto:address?subject=text&body=text

Some applications even allow adding attachments the same way
(...&attachment=...), but mu4e doesn't seem to.

If you keep everything on one line and in a bracketed link, you don't
even have to worry about replacing spaces with "%20":

[[mailto:w...@where.org?subject=Some words&body=Some more words]]

But it's probably recommendable to URL-encode spaces and punctuation,
and I find it's necessary if you have newlines. You can use the
url-encode-url function for this.

So the OP's example would be:

[[mailto:sub...@bugs.debian.org?subject=%20My%20problem%20with%20hkl...&body=Package:%20hkl%0AVersion:%20@VERSION@%0A%0AI%20found%20this%20problem%20in%20hkl...]]

(The brackets are needed if you actually want to keep the trailing dots.)

Yours,
Christian

I think mailto: link syntax comes with GET-style parameters that allow
prefilling of some headers, ie
"mailto:some...@address.com?subject=BugReport";, but that's pretty
limited. John's right that if what you want is the above, you should
probably just write some function to do it.

Incidentally, when I just tried to test the above, org would only send
the link to Conkeror, instead of opening in Gnus. Dunno what's going on
there.

Re: [O] mailto link with a subject and a content

2015-01-15 Thread John Kitchin
I don't think a link is what you want here. You only get one piece of
information out of box when you click on a link,
e.g. mailto:jkitc...@andrew.cmu.edu (in my org-mode) will open a message
addressed to me. It is conceivable you could use syntax like
[[mailto:s...@email.com][Some subject]], but you would need to get the
element at point to get to the Some subject part.

It is easier to use a headline as the subject, and properties of the
headline to store the email address. See the function here:

https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/email.el#L51

Which sends an org-headline as an email with the headline as the
subject, and contents as the body. After you send the email, it stores
who you sent it to, and when as properties of that headline.

There are some other simpler email functions in there too.

[O] mailto link with a subject and a content

2015-01-15 Thread PICCA Frederic-Emmanuel
Hello, I would like to create a link (exported as html) which allow to prefill 
the content of the emai when we click on it.

Something like

   To: sub...@bugs.debian.org
   Subject: My problem with hkl...

   Package: hkl
   Version: @VERSION@

   I found this problem in hkl...

Is it possible to do this kind of things with org-mode ?

thanks

Frederic
