[PATCH] New "project" option for org-link-file-path-type


From: Jack Kamm
Subject: [PATCH] New "project" option for org-link-file-path-type
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2020 17:46:03 -0700

The attached patch adds a "project" option for org-link-file-path-type.

When this is set, links to files under the current project root will be
relative, while links elsewhere are absolute.

It relies on project.el, which appears to have been added in emacs 25. I
used fboundp to check whether the functionality is available, and to
silence compiler warnings. I'm not sure if this is the correct way to do
it.

+If =org-link-file-path-type= is =project=, inserted links under the

+If not in a project, or if =project.el= is not available (as in older
