I am working on a tool for tracing system requirements down to actual
code.  I am considering augmenting gnu emacs to support a sort of
hypertext environment, connecting different parts of the documentation
and code in a variety of ways.  Some of these links may be processed
automatically by a cross reference sort of tool.

Has anyone dabbled with hypertext in emacs?  Or pointers embedded in
text?  My best bet might be the INFO system included with recent
versions of gnumacs, but I don't understand it and we will need to
make modifications.  Any help and pointers appreciated.
