M. Simms asked:
>One might ask: What is the purpose of the "jump commands" ??

I've received a few questions about this in response to my warning
about not including certain character sequences in file names.  From
the EasyLangage reference guide, it "jump commands" seem to be a
rather useless feature (at least to me):

---------------------- begin excerpt ----------------------
Also, you can create links in your Commentary text to the Windows
Media Player (to play an audio clip) and to definitions in the
Online User Manual. The links are words in your Commentary that
appear in a different color and that when clicked, play an audio
clip or bring up the specified definition in the Online User
Manual. These words are referred to as jump words.

To create a jump word that plays a music (.WAV) file, enclose the
complete file name and path of the sound file using the following
syntax:

\wb<path\filename>\we

For example, to link your commentary to the file
c:\windows\ding.wav, you could write the following statement:

Commentary("This links to a file: \wbc:\ding.wav\we");

To create a jump word that brings up the existing definition in the
Online User Manual, enclose the word using the following syntax:

\pb<word>\pe
or
\hb<word>\he
---------------------- end excerpt ----------------------

Why I'd want to use this feature is beyond me, but apparently
somebody thought it was cool enough to add.
