Refering to links?

[indieterminacy at libre.brussels]

Which is gravy, the Gemini space is lovely!


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

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

One aproach is to create a master block containing only '=>', with the
logic that child blocks would contain links (which would be outputted
properly as GemText).

Using a parser (the Lisp TXR in my case), Im hoping to have good
operability 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 may
give you ideas regarding how you could have intermediate processes to
align your references for correctly annotated URIs.
