How to create hyperlinks to "here" with `find-here-links' (2020)

This video is a tutorial on how to create an elisp hyperlink to "here" - where "here" is the current Emacs buffer, or a position on the current Emacs buffer - and how to copy it to our notes, all this with few keystrokes.

For more on eev see http://angg.twu.net/#eev.

I recorded this video without rehearsing it first, so it's a bit messy... sorry!

Links to the video on YouTube and to its original MP4:

Its "script" is here.


If you have eev with can download and play a local copy of the video with mpv with:
