Hypertext Links
To link a word or phrase using hypertext enclose it in {#...#URL#} where URL is the destination for the link.
This is a link to the MTX file for this page.
This is a link to an anchor lower down on this page.
If the text to be linked is a valid URL, the second part of the tag may be omitted {#URL##}. This is a convenient shorthand for the redundant {#URL#URL#}.
This is a link to the file hyper.mtx.
To link to a specific point in a document enclose it in {#...#=NAME#} where NAME is a unique identifier for the anchor. Note that anchors are case sensitive ("name" does not equal "NAME").
The word "anchor" is an anchor for this page.
As a convenience, MTX will automatically preface Internet email links with "mailto:" in the output HTML file. This means that you can use the shorthand {#rrathe@ufl.edu##} instead of {#rrathe@ufl.edu#mailto:rrathe@ufl.edu#}.
