3.5 Naming for later use as targets

If you build an entry with a long and complicated excursion then you might wish to be able to refer to it later. Xy-pic provides a mechanism for this: there is a special target form which we haven't discussed yet:

t ="name"

This will introduce the new target "name" which will refer to the target just before the =. This is particularly useful inside excursions, of course, and can also be used after labels.
