16.6 Providing
related-topic links for Help systems
DITA2Go supports dedicated related-topic
links:
- associative
links (ALinks) for all Help systems except WinHelp 3 and JavaHelp
- keyword
links (KLinks) for HTML Help and OmniHelp.
Dedicated related-topic links are typically
displayed in a menu or pop-up window, or in a navigation pane. With limited
screen estate, they offer the advantage of not cluttering the topic pane
with See and See also entries.
