In summary
In some documentation for a package I am working on I have
\code{\link[stats]{varimax}} \code{\link[stats]{promax}}
The link to varimax works, but not the one to promax. Promax is an alias under \name{varimax}. ...
\code(\link[stats:varimax]{promax}}
works but will probably break if promax is ever moved to its own Rd file. (From the discussion there is probably not a better general solution.)
\code(\link{promax}}works because stats is always installed, but is not a general solution because I have other cases where the package may not be installed.
\code(\link[stats:promax]{varimax}}which might be another (but presumably mistaken) interpretation of the Writing R Extensions documentation
\link[pkg:bar]{foo} to link to the package pkg with topic (file?)
foo and bar respectively.
does not work and also displays "varimax" in the text (which is not what I want).
