I use the forms API quite often, and have to navigate to it from this
page [1] each time. If those two URLs could be clickable links, it would
save an annoying copy-paste.


Trivial, I know, but it's a bit inconvenient and easily fixed.

Hmmm, we'll I'm not sure how easily fixed...


The source for this page is in the comments at the top of form.inc


See, for example:


http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/drupal/includes/form.inc?rev=1.182&...


So apparently there is something wrong with the formatting of the  code
comments.  Getting it fixed will mean figuring out what's wrong with the
code comment formatting, making a patch to fix it, and getting the
attention of a core committer.

The first step would be finding an example of the @link comment tag
being used properly and working...


What is used to generate the docs from these comments - doxygen?
javadoc? I know that in javadoc, @links are specified like this:


{@link http://url link text}


Whereas the current comment has this:


@link http://url link text @endlink


But I don't know the syntax of other documentation-generators.
