Let's see: Each line which starts with a "d" also has some kind of underlined text in the second column. Each line which starts with a "-" has text which is not underlined in the second column. Which implies a connection between the "d" and the property of underlining. Unless you have "a priori" knowlege of "underline means clickable" there is no chance of thinking that "not-underlined means not-clickable". Luben
