Link question

Link question

[Shaun Johnson]

I'm a light user of Orgmode so the following might not be sensible or there might
be some existing way to achieve the same effect.

I have an Org file like:

* Glossary
...
** Address
...
* Implementation
...
** Address
...

What I would like is to have distinct links to the two 'Address' headlines. I can't
see a way to this with the standard link types. A possible solution would be to introduce
a 'path based' link type where the two 'Address' headlines have distinct paths through the
outline tree of ("Glossary" "Address") and ("Implementation" "Address").

Does this make sense or am I gibbering?

If it does make sense then my Elisp skills are probably up to implementing this.

Thanks in advance,

Shaun.

Hi Shaun,

I think this would indeed make sense.  I guess it should
use "/" as a separator, and it should ideally ignore TODO keywords,
priority cookies, and tags.

Please go ahead and give it a try - to include it into Org you would  
have
to sin the papers with the FSF.

Best wishes

- Carsten

Carsten,

Ok, I will add this to my todo list - I might find time to start on it
this weekend.

How do I start the process of signing papers for the FSF.

Shaun.
