linkFromOriginal(scope[, linkTypeStr])

This function works exactly as the same as linkFrom(), except for one important difference that the link created is always between two originals even if either/both the evaluated source or destination are an alias.

For more detail of use, see linkFrom().

Examples

Linking from the original note "Some note" (and not an alias of it):

No link type: linkFromOriginal("Some note") 

Link type 'agree': linkFromOriginal("Some note","agree");
