html links from @uses (or similar)

Yes, I have thought about adding this several times. I was actually hoping to have IDLdoc determine this automatically, but I have to improve the parser quite a bit to do that (in other words, it's going to be a while for that).

In the meantime, an easier task would be to just make the author list the routines and classes in the @uses section. This should be fairly easy to reconcile with automatic output in the future.

Is there anything besides routines and classes that would be useful to link to?

Added links for directly mentioned routines and class in the Uses section in r592.

Might be useful to add routines and classes that are used by the routines/classes listed in the Uses section, the routines/classes used by those, etc. This would give the entire list of routines needed to run the given routine.

Recursive resolution of the @uses might be helpful, but I think the first step that you've implemented is a great improvement in itself. I am anxious to try it.

What is the proper way to reference a class in this case (i.e. "class_name__define" or "class_name". Thanks for the quick turn around time!!

I should use MG_CALLED_ROUTINES (in the introspection external) to find all the helper routines.
