Mmm... I know the protocol is "simple by default". But I think something got trouble with impossibility to refering some element in text.

Thanks

I have a question about gemini text syntax. Is there any way to

refering to link within the text? Some canonical or

Eg. something like this:

This is my resume [1] and my work [2]

gemini://.... My Resumé

=

gemini://.... My work

If then I insert a link betweem "My Resumé" and "My Work", the

numbers refering would be wrong.

There is no standard way to do so, and this is by design (the current

line-based format is very easy to parse). Some people use [1], [2], ...

indexes like you, others use Unicode uppercase numbers (the latter is

semantically incorrect and therefore discouraged).
