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: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (setq org-return-follows-link t) (setq org-open-non-existing-files t) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- To create a link to a new file/wiki page, I simply type C-u C-c C-l and the name of the file I want to link to (e.g., a-new-file.org). Org nicely prompts me to add a description (e.g. "A new file"). The result is the following link: [[file:a-new-file.org][A new file]] Then, all I need to do is place the cursor on the link, hit return, and voilà, I am transported to the new page. That said, if you'd like something that functions more like a conventional wiki (CamelCase words, backlinks, interwiki links, etc.), you can always take a look at Muse Mode.
