I don't follow. Or rather, I can't see any good uses. Can you enlighten me?
But an adjective or adverb as a link doesn't look

Maybe not, but does [[peace]]fully look any better?
IMHO there's far too much talk about letting the

Is that not what software is for?
(very OT aside: I blame GUIs. I see so many people doing repetitive tasks
manually with Windows file manager that I can see why people don't
classify computers as labour-saving devices any more.)
