Hello,
I wonder what is the best way to implement a wiki with org? I know
you
can hyperlink to anything, but what I was thinking was something
automatic, like what WikiDPad does or Tomboy -- like having
wikiwords
(CamelCase) automatically linked as you type to a filename in the
system (a specific directory you specify for the wiki). If it is not
possible, it could be a nice addition for a future org version.
As others have already mentioned, org-mode does not support CamelCase
words. But it's method for creating links is quite nice and allows
org
to function very easily as a wiki.
To make org-mode more "wiki-like," I add the following to my .emacs
file. The first variable has to come *before* org is loaded:
(setq org-return-follows-link t)
(setq org-open-non-existing-files t)
Hm - then either the docs or the code has a bug.
`C-h v org-open-non-existing-files' gives me this:
org-open-non-existing-files is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Its value is nil
Documentation:
Non-nil means, `org-open-file' will open non-existing files.
When nil, an error will be generated.
You can customize this variable.

As you can see, it says `org-open-non-existing-files' is nil. But
still,
I can follow the link without error (even with `debug-on-error' == t).
I didn't notice that, since it's so natural to open such a file. It
will
become a physical file once I save it, so I cannot see a reason to
avoid
that.
