A document links to another by its path, `[the plan](/n/work/plan)`, or now by its title, `[[Plan]]` or `[[Plan|the plan]]`. What each document links to is kept in a new `links` table, rebuilt whenever its text is written: from the browser, over the mount, or by an import. A title is looked for in the linking document's space first, then in every other. Renaming or moving a document, or a folder above it, rewrites the links to it in every document that has one, in the same transaction: the path to the new one, a title to the new name, with the label left as it was. Each rewritten document keeps a revision of what it said before. A link to something in the trash keeps its row, so it follows the thing when it is restored somewhere else. A document created, or renamed, under a title that a link was waiting for is found by that link from then on. The reader draws `[[titles]]` as links, and a title no document has yet as a dimmed one that offers to write that document. `gf` follows either from the editor, and `[[` there completes titles from the search. `gb` and `:backlinks` list the documents that link to the open one, with the line each does it on; the line under the title counts them. A share page shows these links as plain text, as it does every /n/ link. The documents written before this are indexed once, when the server starts and finds the table empty.
