Ah! I wasn't aware of that keybinding.  Thanks for the pointer.

Overuse of yasnippets has me hitting the tab key whenever I want any
kind of completion.  I just added the following to my org config which
should help.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-insert-link-maybe ()
  "insert a file link depending on the context"
  (interactive)
  (let ((case-fold-search t))
    (if (save-excursion (re-search-backward "[[:space:]]") (forward-char 1) 
(looking-at "\\[?\\[?file:"))
        (progn (replace-match "") (org-insert-link '(4)) t)
      nil)))

(add-hook 'org-tab-first-hook 'org-insert-link-maybe)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks -- Eric
