"file" link from org-mode file

"file" link from org-mode file

[ronaldo.mercado]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1371 bytes --]

Dear list,

GNU Emacs 24.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2012-06-10 on MARVIN
Org-mode version 7.8.11
on windows XP

I create a link to a directory
file:c:/home

When I "mouse click" or press C-c C-o (org-open-at-point)
I would like the link to be opened in dired, but windows explorer appears.

How can I modify this behaviour?

Thanks!

Try

file+emacs:c:/home

Great. Thanks Bernt.
It works wonderfully. Are there other magic combinations?

Of course :-) See http://orgmode.org/org.html#External-links for a
comprehensive list.

Also keep in mind the keyboard and mouse shortcuts for opening links,
described immediately below the list.
