Examples

<PARA><MODESPEC ID="mo123" APPLICATION="FAX">usenumericipaddr</MODESPEC>
To warm up, we provide a <ANCHOR ID="proan123"> target in
<PHRASE ID="proan124">the same place</PHRASE>, pretty much.
To go there,
<LINK LINKEND="proan123" TYPE="info">click here</LINK>
and say goodbye.  Or click to go to
<LINK LINKEND="proan123" ENDTERM="proan124"></LINK>.
You may prefer to 
<ULINK URL="http://foo.bar.com/index.html" TYPE="alternate">click
here</ULINK> instead.  And if that doesn't work, just
<OLINK TARGETDOCENT="foobar" LINKMODE="mo123" 
LOCALINFO="noretry" TYPE="desperate">click here</OLINK>
and give up all hope.
</PARA>
