;; Attachments are managed either by using a custom property DIR or by
;; using property ID from org-id.  When DIR is defined, a location in
;; the filesystem is directly attached to the outline node.  When
;; org-id is used, attachments are stored in a folder named after the
;; ID, in a location defined by `org-attach-id-dir'.  DIR has
;; precedence over ID when both parameters are defined for the current
;; outline node (also when inherited parameters are taken into
;; account).
