Creating Hyperlinks

Creating Hyperlinks

[davidjneu@gmail.com]

Hi,

Apologies if this is a FAQ.

I'd like to write an elisp function that looks through a set of files,
and creates a buffer that contains hyperlinks to certain locations
in the files - similar to the way running grep returns hyperlinks.

Could someone tell how to create the hyperlinks?

Many thanks!

Cheers,
David

grep relies on compilation-mode.  `C-h v grep-regexp-alist' and
`C-h f grep-mode'.
