Hi Rainer,

I just tried this using DocBook but it didn't work for me. So I used a simple
sed replacement to get this working. I created two examples:
http://ruderich.com/macports/guide-link.html
http://ruderich.com/macports/guide-title.html
The first one wraps the sections (h1-h9) in links so you can click on them to
see the anchor. The second one adds a title attribute which should display the
anchor when you mouse over it for some time.

Please tell me which you like more and I will add it to the documentation
Makefile to add it to the guide.

Simon
