Hi David,
Thanks for replying;
I don't understand what you mean. I was not aware off url-encoding, but
found help here:

<http://www.eskimo.com/%7Ebloo/indexdot/html/topics/urlencoding.htm>
So far so good.
The way I interpret this is that I can 'replace' [square brackets] in
orgmode with %5Bsquare brackets%5D
However when I try this, org does not 'convert' to a link...? What am I
missing?
Perhaps for clarification:
The link I used in my example may be confusing, it is a long UNC path to
a file on a network server that has somewhere [32] in it's name.
It's the [32] that seems to confuse org's linking.
I also noticed when hovering over [32] that org seems to recognize this
as a footnote??
Thanks,
Erwin

Hi everyone,
I guess this is a minor question, but it has puzzled me already more
than once.
My example: The below example is normally all on one line.
---------------Begin code----------------------------------------------
** Action: started to play video
[[\\Dcerouter\public\videos\STORY_Station (sdb1)-CORE [32]\Les Rivières
Pourpres 720x304\The Crimson Rivers.mkv][The Crimson Rivers.mkv]]
---------------End code------------------------------------------------
The problem is that the file location already contains a number between
square brackets [32] which renders Org to treat the link in an
unsuspected way.
Is there any way to circumvent this behaviour e.g. by inserting special
characters to avoid Org to look inbetween the special characters?
You can url-encode the square brackets with %5B ("[") and %5D ("]") --
orgmode does this when calling `org-store-link' (C-c l) for a place
that contains square brackets and opens the links fine.
