Gemtext cheatsheet doesn't mention links

gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/cheatsheet.gmi

The Gemtext cheatsheet page on circumlunar.space does not make any mention of how to add links within a gemtext page. Does anyone know if this a deliberate choice, or how we might go about getting this fixed? It makes the page not very useful, imo.

gemtext only has links of the form => link description, not inline links at all. this is by choice I believe

I know, but if you look at the link I included you'll see that it doesn't make any mention of any kind of links at all.

Well, technically the cheatsheet is only about _text_, not links... Quoting:

the basics of how text works in Gemtext

It's easy to argue, though, that something called "Gemtext cheatsheet" should cover the entire syntax. Emailing @solderpunk about this wouldn't hurt...

Hey, thanks a lot for pointing this out! I can't believe nobody has mentioned this to me before now. I have updated it to mention links and also added a link at the top to the fuller length Gemtext introduction which makes things a lot clearer.

Thank you @solderpunk! looks great 🙏
