Bug Description

Binary package hint: tomboy

Let's suppose I'm taking notes on Shakespeare and I create a note called "iambic pentameter" with a definition of it. I like that everytime I type "iambic pentameter" in any note I get a link to the definition, but I would like to get it too if I type "iambic pentameters".

I propose including the option to select a stretch of text and link it to a specific note; for example the first time I type "iambic pentameters" I don't get a link, but if I select it and link it to the "iambic pentameter" note, every time I type that text it will become a link to that note.

From upstream:
"I can't believe there isn't already a bug for this (I just checked). It is a
common request to be able to link to notes (and other objects) in a more
explicit way as you suggest. There has been some discussion of it on the
mailing list, as well."
