<HTML><h1>Hyperlinks</h1>

A hyperlink is a highlighted piece or text which, when you click on it, does
something.  In Microhelp hyperlinks are highlighted in blue.

Microhelp uses the same hyperlink format as <a href="html">HTML</a>.  A commmand is embedded in
the text.  There are four types:

   A marker, telling Microhelp about a special position in the text.
  
	<h3>&lt;a name="anchor_name">...&lt;/a></h3>

   A link to a position in the same file
  
	<h3>&lt;a href="#anchor_name">...&lt;/a></h3>
  
   A link to another file
  
	<h3>&lt;a href="filename">...&lt;/a></h3>
  
   A link to a specified position in another file
  
	<h3>&lt;a href="filename#anchor_name">...&lt;/a></h3>
  

No commands are case sensitive in Microhelp, and extra or missing spaces will
usually be ignored.

<h1>Examples</h1>

To place a link to a position later in the text you could write

  Click here to <h3>&lt;a href="#laterbit"></h3>link to a later part of the text<h3>&lt;/a></h3>.

and the later bit of text would be marked by

  This is the <h3>&lt;a name="laterbit"></h3>later part of the text<h3>&lt;/a></h3>.

The first command would appear like this - try it out.

  Click here to <a href="#laterbit">link to a later part of the text</a>.

Notice how the <h3>&lt;a href...</h3> bit begins the hyperlink and the <h3>&lt;/a></h3> bit closes
it.  The text in between will be highlighed in blue when displayed.

The following link is made with the command

  Click here to jump to some <h3>&lt;a href="linkexamp"></h3>linking examples<h3>&lt;/a></h3>.

  Click here to jump to some <a href="linkexamp">linking examples</a>.

This is the <a name="laterbit">later part of the text</a>.

After youve written a few pages you might like to look at how Microhelp
builds a <a href="pathinfo">pathname</a> for the linked file.  You can link to almost anywhere.
