org: Link format
4.1 Link format
===============
Org will recognize plain URL-like links and activate them as clickable
links. The general link format, however, looks like this:
[[link][description]] or alternatively [[link]]
Once a link in the buffer is complete (all brackets present), Org will
change the display so that ‘description’ is displayed instead of
‘[[link][description]]’ and ‘link’ is displayed instead of ‘[[link]]’.
Links will be highlighted in the face ‘org-link’, which by default is an
underlined face. You can directly edit the visible part of a link.
Note that this can be either the ‘link’ part (if there is no
description) or the ‘description’ part. To edit also the invisible
‘link’ part, use ‘C-c C-l’ with the cursor on the link.
If you place the cursor at the beginning or just behind the end of
the displayed text and press <BACKSPACE>, you will remove the
(invisible) bracket at that location. This makes the link incomplete
and the internals are again displayed as plain text. Inserting the
missing bracket hides the link internals again. To show the internal
structure of all links, use the menu entry ‘Org->Hyperlinks->Literal
links’.
