[O] [PATCH] Find a link after point in `org-open-at-point'

[Samuel Loury]

Dear all,

I would like to propose a patch for `org-open-at-point' to find a link
after point when called inside a paragraph. It had this behavior at some
time and I think lost it during the org-element re-factoring. This patch
restores this ancient behavior with the new way the function is coded.

Please find the patch attached in this mail.

Best regards,

From ea1d4d061a74d7797bf5cf78dc2722eb0baaf7be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] Find a link after point in `org-open-at-point'

* lisp/org.el (org-open-at-point): Look for a link after point but in the same
line as (point) when called inside a paragraph.

Now, the user doesn't have to move the cursor to the link to call
`org-open-at-point'.
