Information Retrieval's Definition
The term hypertext is used to refer to full-text
indexing schemes which are more elaborate and, ideally, more useful in
creating "links" or connections between related subjects or
terms. [...] Hypertext allows the user to move from within one section
of text to another, related section of text, without having to exit the
current document (or section of document) and re-enter a new document.

III" 130) |
