Bug Report: refile and attachments

[Colin Fraizer]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 481 bytes --]

1.       Exactly what I did

I created an entry in an org file.

I added an attachment to that entry.

I used refile (C-c C-w) to move the entry to another org file.

I visited that file and attempted to open the attachment (C-c C-a o).

2.       What I expected:

Because there was only one attachment associated with the entry, I expected
it to open.

3.       What happened instead:

I was prompted for an attachment name. Hitting <tab> showed "no match" in
the minibuffer.

Before doing this, can you try opening it from initial org file itself.

using C-c C-a o

I know it's not _exactly_ the same, but I re-filed it back to the original
file (C-c C-w) and then opened it successfully (C-c C-a o).  It didn't
prompt me (because there was only one attachment).

I just tried it with a new entry and attachment file (of the same type) and
it worked.  Hmn.

Oh, I see the problem.  In the failing case, the org files are in different
directories.  (I didn't realize it because they are both agenda files and I
was using the path-oriented interactive refilling.) I would expect the
refile to move the attachments to the target's attachment directory
regardless.

[Sorry I didn't have time to debug the elisp myself.  I may look later if no
one jumps in before me.  I don't want to be a leech. 8-]

I've put it on the wish-list because it is indeed something that is
naturally to be expected.
