  I have to confess that I wasn't sure whether it would work, and
  whether it could be applied consistently over multiple paragraphs,
  but it was only after the final round of changes that it really
  came together. Although \code and \note blocks don't quite fit.

  I've disabled the LATEX generation because it just takes too long
  to regenerate and verify the results of any experimentation. I shall
  re-enable it this evening, and submit a couple of new files for the
  LaTeX document template and title page logo. My limited LaTeX skills
  are pretty rusty, and I was confused to see a LaTeX code snippet that
  appeared to pull in a png image file. The doxygen manual implies that
  the LaTeX side can only handle eps images, but if we can avoid having
  to convert, and maintain, all the images into two formats, that would
  save us a lot of work.

  I agree. See below...

  I agree that, ultimately, the "ssect_" part is redundant, but in the
  meantime I wanted to be sure that I have a unique name without having
  to search through the dox every time. The goal is to get rid of the
  html named anchors and links to them, and then we can tidy up again.

  Note: I think that there is already a link conflict. The fl_frame()
  in the text is not converted into a link to the reference page, but
  fl_frame2() is, and I think this has to do with the existing explicit
  named "fl_frame" anchor. I only spotted this at the last moment and
  have not had chance to verify yet.

  Sounds good to me, as part of the next phase.

  I think that as long as we are consistent in using 'code()' to link
  to the reference pages, and 'phrase' to link to the tutorial pages,
  we probably won't need to tweak the appearance of the links.

  That's a good trick to know. I had missed that one.
