[Orgmode] Re: org-registry.el v0.1 - a registry for Org links

[Fabian Braennstroem]

Hi Bastien,

nice work, I just tested org-registry. Unfortunately, I
could not find any updating of the links when moving and
copying files and directories with dired... did I miss it :-)
It is probably 'just' a hook for dired, which changes the
registry  entry and corresponding link according to the
destination directory!?

Greetings!
Fabian
