Hi,
I'm using org-publish-external-link to look up a the link target for a
headline. The following code works, although I'd expect it to fail:

(org-publish-resolve-external-link
  (concat "* " (org-element-property :raw-value headline))
  source-file)

``headline'' is a headline as returned by org-element, while
``source-file'' is a ``.org'' file.

I'd expect that this needs to be

(org-publish-resolve-external-link
  (concat (make-string (org-element-property :level headline) ?*)
   " " (org-element-property :raw-value headline))
  source-file)

I.e. for a level 3 headline it should be ``*** foobar'' and not ``*
foobar''. ``org-publish-resolve-external-link'' uses
``org-export-string-to-search-cell'' internally.

Can someone point me to some docuentation on how the searching works?

Cheers, Mark
