Subject: apparent bug in org-insert-link with active region
Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2007 10:56:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <41c818190710030856i1b0280bdvc88a82e954f738b8@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi list

If I call org-insert-link with the region active, then the region
content is instantly deleted while I am prompted for the link. This is
rather disconcerting, but for most link types the region content
magically reappears as the default value of the description. However,
for "file:" links the default value of the description becomes the
link itself, and the previous content of the region is lost (as far as
I can see). Is this intended?

This is with Org version 5.09 - I'm sure it used to work at some time
in the past.

Cheers

Will
