Re: Anchors for links?
Thanks, Dan -
It certainly may be convenient, in some cases, to link to a heading.
Explicit anchors would allow increased flexibility and, IMO, anchors
would facilitate both usage and implementation.
However, I would be interested to learn the details, about how the
user might specify a heading as an implicit anchor?
Best,
Marc
