[Docutils-develop] [docutils:feature-requests] Re: #72 rst2man: Show reference targets

[engelbert g. <gr...@us...>]

line of thought 

* Reading a manpage  on screen in a terminal is like a printout 
* printing links at the end, in or near section SEE ALSO might be far away

plan

* printing in place the one without label
* printing at end of paragraph for labeled urls ?

Currently, the manpage writer writes a reference like `ALT TEXT <URL>` as just `ALT TEXT`, with alternate font.
Would it be better to render it as, for example, `ALT TEXT [URL]`, so the information is not lost?
