Link Tag

In Doc-O-Matic there are several ways to link to other topics: You can:

To link to an external target

Enter <extlink_linktarget_> or <exref target= "_target_"> to link to targets outside the project. Doc-O-Matic does not verify the _linktarget_. For this reason you must ensure that the target is valid and the exporter understands how to create a hyper link to it.
To link to the following external targets enter:

Output Format	External Help Topics	Web Page	File
In RTF	RTF Topic ID	http:// and the name of the Web page. Note: Doc-O-Matic assumes that the target is an URL and it uses the ShellExecute macro to open a browser window.	File:// and the relative or absolute path to the filename. Note: The file can only be opened if the program that is used to open the file is installed on the computer.
In HTML	HTML Topic ID	http:// and the name of the Web page	File:// and the absolute path to the file.
In PDF		http:// and the name of the Web page	pdf:// filename.

To link to a native target

Enter <link_topicid> or <xref target="topicid"/> to insert native inline links manually.
To have Doc-O-Matic replace the inserted link text with the target title, select the Replacing link text with target title check box in the section definition. For example you might not want to insert full names of functions as target text but you want full names (classname::membername or classname.membername) to appear in the output. For details, see New Section.
