Re: how to get an org-link to open a program in eshell
Many thanks Kyle for your reply,
In fact I have succeeded to open directly some programs with eshell
thanks to org-links like the following one:
[[eshell:program_name]]
If I put these org-links into an org file and if I have bookmarked this
file.
Nevertheless, I do not find that this solution is very elegant. In
my bookmark file I have this part of code:
#1=(#("eshell-launcher" 0 15
(bmkp-full-record #1#))
(buffer-name . "*dashboard*")
(visits . 2)
(time 24213 34946 832780 22000)
(created 24213 34859 529449 8000)
(position . 0)
(function . eshell)
(handler . bmkp-jump-function))
and it works correctly: via the bookmark in my dashboard, I can open
eshell . But I have not succeed to write a code in this bookmark file to
get a program that is opened directly via eshell, hence org-links in an
org file. All that I wrote in this bookmark file failed. Any suggestion
is welcome, even if it is not a serious problem to open an org file
first. It is just an elegance issue.
Best wishes, and again, thanks,
Jo.

IIUC what you want boils down to having an eshell link that runs a command. I don't use ol-eshell myself, but, taking a quick look, this seems to be possible. For example, say I have a link like [[eshell:*eshell*:echo hello]] Following that gives me Welcome to the Emacs shell /tmp $ echo hello hello /tmp $
how to get an org-link to open a program in eshell
Hi everybody, I'm trying to get something via an org-link. I suspect that it is possible, but the documentation is not clear enough for me to get it. I want to make an org-link that get me directly in eshell a program, and if it is possible to do it, I will bookmark this org-link. To explain precisely what I want to do: I have an executable in /usr/local/bin that I have called SMinlog , in a shell, the command SMinlog -p -i open directly the following output: SEQUENT: and in the my Linux desktop xfce I have also an icon that is a shortcut to open directly this program in a xfce4-terminal. I suspect that an org-link could provide the same function directly in eshell. If I am right, I would be happy to find the solution, but I am afraid that I need help. Best wishes, Jo.
