Re: [O] PPTX link: Open with PowerPoint on Mac

[Nathan Neff]

Here it is: https://orgmode.org/manual/External-Links.html#External-Links

I was looking here:
https://orgmode.org/manual/External-links.html - but wait, what's the difference?  Whoa, the 

"l" is lower case on the second link - looks like a doc / publishing bug - one page has 4.3 and the

other says 4.4.

What do I need to do to report this doc / publishing bug?

Thanks,

I think you may have to put “file+sys:/“ before your path.

For example: file+sys://Users/nate/some_pptx.pptx

Thank you Takaaki very much! This worked great!

 

Best,
