Makes a hypertext link to the named item. If the protocol is missing, The HTML browser will assume file:. If the hostname is missing, the HTML browser will assume that the link is to the same host as the current URL.
Although Mosaic doesn't care whether the name is quoted, this behaviour can not be guaranteed for all HTML browsers.
link to a text file
If the leading "/" is omitted, the named file will be assumed to be relative to the current URL.
Your browser will recognise HTML files automatically, provided that the file has a ".htm" extension [".htm" for Windoze].
Note Relative references can't be used when imagemaps are used
