Which is gravy, the Gemini space is lovely!

FWIW, Im migrating a lot of my GemText content so that it all restswithin Emacs-Hyperbole's Kotl file format.

That way I structure my thoughts into blocks, using more terseinterfaces.

One aproach is to create a master block containing only '=

', with thelogic that child blocks would contain links (which would be outputtedproperly as GemText).

Using a parser (the Lisp TXR in my case), Im hoping to have goodoperability using URI type assets and toolsets.

The author of TXR has a script for its manpage to be converted to HTML=

http://www.kylheku.com/cgit/man/tree/man2html/README

Its main utility is for cross referencing across the 800+ page document.

Naturally in document anchors are not a feature of Gemini but it maygive you ideas regarding how you could have intermediate processes toalign your references for correctly annotated URIs.

Thanks for the references.

I feel that the majority of people say "forget!. We'll stay as we are" ;-)

No problem. I have to trust to reader's intelligence :-)

Hello Xavier,

FYI, I did start a thread concerning in body references previously

Additionally, I made a suggestion with no takers:

Hopefully something there helps.

Hi,

First of all, introduce myself. I'm a new gemini user. I like very much the philosophy behind this.

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.

So, is there any way to identify links within the text? Something like <a href="..." id="">.... in

HTML?

Thanks in advance,

Xavier
