Ok.

Because then I can add comments like

  -- (Info-goto-node "(lua)gsub")

in the programs I'm writing, and I can follow them as if they were
hyperlinks, in Emacs, by placing the cursor at the end of the line and
typing C-x C-e...

Also when I put one of these programs with hyperlinks at my page the
hyperlinks get converted to something that works in the web; the one
above would point to <http://angg.twu.net/info2www.cgi?(lua)gsub>, for
example. <http://angg.twu.net/LUA/inc.lua.html> has some of these
links; look for "(find-luanode ...)".

It's weird and ugly, but I find it practical...

  Cheers,
