How to let Org-mode open a link like [[file://file.org]] in current window instead of default in other window?


I hope to use [C-c C-o] to open a link like [[file://filename.org|filename]] in current window, instead of the default in other window.

How to change this Org-mode default behavior ?

Seems default [C-u C-c C-o] is force open link in other window.

And there is a similar question at here: How do I keep Emacs org-mode from splitting windows?


Solution

  • You need to change the value of org-link-frame-setup. Default value contains the cons (file . find-file-other-window). You may replace it by (file . find-file).
