Aahh.

Too bad.  IIRC, Norman has put some files on the olink'ing into the
stylesheets collection.  I'll have to investigate (but not this night,
maybe Thursday).

No, most problable not.  olink might help us to link together documents
residing at different places.  It might help to do indirect linking.
XPointer and XLink are standards developed at w3.org for this special

don't know which software already supports something of these
"standards".
