This patch was applied and has been apparently improved upon. Export->Pdf... produces correct internal and external hyperlinks. ==> closed

Attached is a patch that provides hyperlink support when the file is exported to ps and then converted to pdf using ps2pdf.

No external style sheets are needed.

After patching and re-building you WILL need to:

texmacs --delete-style-cache

once, or within texmacs click on "tools, updates, styles"

The only problem I am aware of is that the link generally moves to the top of the target page (or bottom, if it is the last page) instead of the correct part of the target page.

labels have a new internal definition and are implemented as a locus containing a link of type "anchor" in which the id is written as a named destination in postscript.
(In fact the ID is always written as a named destination even for non-anchor links, which probably doesn't matter).

The body of the locus is the original label definition so it should all work fine I hope.

ps2pdf does support hyperlinks:

This is of course correct but impossible to fix with the current architecture, as the PDFs are generated from PostScript files. PostScript files in turn do not allow hyperlinks.

When exporting to PDF, the hyperlinks (both internal and external) are lost. It would be best to create PDFs with hyperlinks in them.
