Abstract

This document is a guide to supporting hypertext documentation within the WASD Hypertext Services environment. It is not a tutorial on writing HTML documents.

It covers the environment supported by the version 5 release of the WASD VMS Hypertext Services (March 1998). It could revised and expanded considerably (if only I prefered to document rather than code :^)
