Hi,
When working with org-capture and inserting links to files, I noticed
that some files do not open properly and found out that the filename
contains "&" which causes this issue.
To replicate:
- Create a file test_&_file.txt
- In dired, locate the file and capture the link C-c l
- In an org file, insert link by C-c C-l
- Place point at file and C-c C-o (org-open-at-point)
The link org stores is e.g "~/test_&_file.txt".
This cannot be opened in a shell, but escaping the ampersand, the file
is opened fine, e.g.
evince ~/test_\&_file.txt
I inserted the escape character in the org link, but this to my dismay
still doesn't work.
Any ideas?
(except the obvious change of ampersand in filenames)
Thanks,
Johnny
