TAB in the agenda takes me to the entry, TAB in the entry opens it up,
and all of those things work properly. Click, ENTER, or C-c o in the
category column of the agenda will follow the link if the category text
contains one. All of that works properly too.
To clarify, my second paragraph there was just saying how useful links
are in categories. It isn't part of the bug report. That's just about
missing spaces.
You said that links aren't supported in categories, but for a feature
that isn't supported, they work very well! In what sense are they not
supported?
I use categories like this:
,----
| * PROJECT Implement BUG-1234, allow users to upload files
| :PROPERTIES:
| :CATEGORY: [[http://example.com/bugtracker/1234][BUG-1234]]
| :ORDERED: t
| :END:
| ** DONE Design uploader UI
| ** TODO Implement authentication
| ** TODO Write a form for directory navigation
| ...etc...
`----
Then the global TODO list (C-c a t) shows this as:
,----
| BUG-1234:TODO Implement authentication
`----
Where "BUG-1234" is a link that takes me to the bug tracker URL. Except
that the layout is a bit wrong:
,----
| plaintext: TODO Item with a plain text category
| BUG-1234:TODO Implement authentication
| plaintext: TODO Item with a plain text category
`----
There should be some spaces after the colon on the second line,
"BUG-1234: TODO", so it lines up with the other entries.
Regards,
Peter.
