Question is, how will JMeter help then work? It's very useful to be able to click ^H while on a test element and have the relevant section displayed. Is there any easy way to do this with a PDF file? How would the index markers be defined?
By the way, the XML processing includes automatic indexing and cross-referencing. I suspect most of this would have to be done manually by the Wiki editors. I think the potential benefits are much less than the costs. And I wonder if many users would actually take the trouble to update the manual on the Wiki. S.
