Re: Org version 9.7 and id: links

[Sébastien Gendre]

Hi,

Thank you for you reply.

So, if I understand correctly:

* On a "file:" link, it is possible to add "::#custom-id" at the end to
  tel Org-mode to search the "custom-id" as a target of the link

* With Org 9.7, an "id:" can also have "::#custom-id" at the end

* "org-id-store-link" add it by default


But an "id:" link already contain an ID, why adding it a second time at
the end of the link ?
