You can add an @anchor.
Thanks. After adding the @anchor I can use it in commands like
@ref. It even understands the @ref command when it's nested in
the @option command, like this:
the @option{@ref{-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks}} option
and renders it as expected in HTML:
the <samp><a
href="Optimize-Options.html#g_t_002dfno_002ddelete_002dnull_002dpointer_002dchecks">-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks</a></samp>
option
Unfortunately, it doesn't look right in PDF where it produces
the [-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks], page 127 option
the text between "the" and "option" is a link.
I was also hoping not to have to add @anchor (since some sort
of anchors must already exist for the Index to work), and for
a way to simply turn the name of an option (or attribute) into
a link to the the existing anchor for the option. But I suspect
that might be too much to expect.
I could deal with the rendering issue by using references in
a way that makes sense either way, but what about avoiding
@anchor? Is that at all possible?
