Defining references points

Defining references points

[Nikolai Weibull]

I have tried figuring out how to define a reference point at any given
location in a document, but haven't been able to come to a solution,
so...how do I do it?  What I'd really like to do would be to write:

        \placerefpoint[name][description]

and then be able to write

        see \about[name], \atpage[name].

with the obvious semantics.

Thanks,
        nikolai

Use

\pagereference[name] or \textreference[name]{text}

to place a label, and \at{page}[name]  to refer to the page number.

Details are  in core-ref.tex

Actually, it turns out that \reference worked best, but thanks for
pointing them out for me.  I was actually using them, only in the wrong
way...I also found them in cont-enp.pdf now and understood them better.
Silly me.

Thanks,
