Re: [O] Insert org-id Link at Point via Outline Path Completion

[Bernhard Pröll]

Hi again,

my guess into the blue: You haven't set the directory as described in
the readme (it defaults to nil).

Since I don't use helm, I haven't considered it.

The purpose of this backend is avoiding the `find-file-noselect' as used
in `org-refile' and the `helm-org-agenda-headings' suggested by John.
It's somewhat in-between using `org-refile' and an indexing with
external tools (recoll for example as recently debated on this list).

Regards,
Bernhard Pröll
