Re: [O] [RFC] Org linting library

User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/24.5 (darwin)

One more observation:

The link

,----
| [[file:__BOX__/Aerodynamic%20resistances.docx][file:./__BOX__/Aerodynamic 
resistances.docx]]
`----

causes the following warnings:

,----
|   9094 low   Link to non-existent local file 
"__BOX__/Aerodynamic%20resistances.docx"
|   9094 low   Link to non-existent local file "./__BOX__/Aerodynamic"
`----

although the file exists and the link works in org.

Cheers,

Rainer
