1010 -
101001 - Follow up ref SDS 11 0000, ref SDS 10 0000.
101002 -
101003 - Combined 0704086 into 0704081 so there is a single way to link
101004 - internally and between files.  Eliminated html link code and instead
101005 - simply enter SDS link ID, which is changed to html code when a file is
101006 - converted into html by 0122.

101401 - F1 F1 F7 Link Documents Based on Flag Set By F1 F1 F8
101402 -
101403 - Up until now we have had a system to click or press enter for linking
101404 - SDS records and for linking documents into SDS records.
101405 -
101406 -     [On 990530 eliminated functions F1 F1 F7 and F1 F1 F8; everything
101407 -     is done by Enter and F1 F6. ref SDS 18 1645]
101408 -
101409 -      This requires placing the cursor at a place where a link is
101410 -      wanted.  Within SDS records, move to the link address, place
101411 -      cursor in the line number field, and press enter or double click.
101412 -
101413 -      Use Ctrl F1 to enter Mark 2 at the link location and jump to the
101414 -      Reference field.  Open an SDS record or a document, move to the
101415 -      location for the link address and press Enter or double click.
101416 -
101417 -
101418 - F1 F1 F7 links two documents together, after flag is set by F1 F1 F8
101419 - that enters an ending html anchor code.
101420 - ..
101421 - Menu creates internal links for documents.
101422 -
101423 -      These internal links have been applying full HTML code, with the
101424 -      anchor, NAME and end anchor components. This is bothersome using
101425 -      the files for work and editing, compared with the SDS link scheme
101426 -      of using simply <nnnn.
101427 -
101428 -      Today, I want to convert to a single SDS scheme <nnnn, because
101429 -      0122 converts these links to HTML. ref SDS 0 9764
101430 -
101431 - We want F1 F1 F7 to link internal documents as well as external
101432 - documents.
101433 -
101434 -                   F1 F1 F7 calls     0704086 for external links
101435 -
101436 -        Make       F1 F1 F7 also call 0704081   internal links
101437 -
101438 - ..
101439 - Looks like what we really need to do is to combine 0704081 and
101440 - 0704086 into a single routine so they can be called with a single
101441 - function.

101469 -
101470 -           a.  Yes, 73 = 1691, so either...
101471 -
101472 -               Was it called on the same line as F1 F1 F8?
101473 -
101474 -               1.  Yes, so enter template if called on same line as F1
101475 -                   F1 F8
101476 -
101477 -               2.  No, create internal link to line where F1 F1 F8 was
101478 -                   entered based on Mark 2.
101479 -
101480 -           b.  No, 73 != 1691, so F1 F1 F8 has not been set,
101481 -
101482 -           Has flag for external link been set, i.e., has F1 F1 F8 been
101483 -           used in another file?
101484 -
101485 -           Does global 73 = 1691?
101486 -
101487 -               1.  Yes, global 73 = 1691, so grab file ID and anchor
101488 -                   spec,,if any on the current line, return to target
101489 -                   file where F1 F1 F8 was set, and enter link between
101490 -                   two files.
101491 -
101492 -                   If SDS record, use that template.
101493 -
101494 -                       Archived SDS record, use gfname
101495 -
101496 -                           This permits linking to archived records
101497 -                           created by others, but not current records,
101498 -                           which should be okay.

101502 -
101503 -                   If document, use that template
101504 -
101505 -               2.  No, global 73 != 1691, so enter an HTML anchor
101506 -                   template on the current line, or link two lines.
101507 -
101508 -                   Is current line the same as Mark 2 set by F1 F1 F8
101509 -                   that enters ending anchor code?
101510 -
101511 -                   a.  Yes, so enter template
101512 -
101513 -                   b.  No, so link current line to Mark 2.

101517 - Background and Analsys
101518 -
101519 - Currently, F1 F1 F7 creates links between files by calling 0704086,
101520 - and F1 F1 F8 enters an ending spec, by calling 0704086 #2
101521 -
101522 -         [On 990530 eliminated these calls. ref SDS 18 1044]
101523 -
101524 -         [Planning on 990530 is at ref SDS 18 1645.]
101525 -
101526 - It would be nice to use F1 F1 F7 for internal links as well, so there
101527 - is symmetry in accomplishing similar functions.
101528 -
101529 - We might be able to do this based on mark 2.
101530 -
101531 - Mark 2 is set by macro 8 when Ctrl F1 is used to jump to the top of
101532 - the file, or in the case of SDS to the bottom of the SDS reference
101533 - list in order to select an SDS record, document or file to open.
101534 -
101535 - We only need this feature for editor files and not SDS.
101536 -
101537 - Macro 8 sets 237 1 to establish mark 2 is set.  This used for linking
101538 - SDS records to other records and documents.
101539 -
101540 - We could make 0704081 turn off mark 2 in documents.
101541 -
101542 - This would allow giving F1 F1 F7 for documents, a conditional
101543 - assignment based on whether mark 2 is set.
101544 -
101545 - Seems a little wild because mark 2 is set anytime we jump to the top
101546 - of the file.
101547 -
101548 - Actually, we may be able to refine this by making the assignment of
101549 - F1 F1 F7 conditioned on the flag for linking files not being set.
101550 - That flag is only set when F1 F1 F8 has entered the ending anchor
101551 - code.
101552 -
101553 - Maybe we can use this to control assigning 0704081 to F1 F1 F7.
