I've been linking different files one to another with
cross-reference
hyperlinks. Recent versions of Eplain have actually
cross-reference
hyperlinks, but only within one single file. I wrote some macros -
years ago -
that put together hyperlinks and cross-references so to have
cross-reference
hyperlinks work *also* between two different files.
But I want each of those different documents, linked now together
with
cross-reference hyperlinks, to live and be processed by TeX not
only as single
articles but also as children (sections) of a master: both
alternate
possibilities according to needs. For that purpose, I needed `\if'
conditions
that would alternatively activate both `modes': let's call them
`book' and `no
book'. So now I'm going back to an old problem in order to improve
its
solution already found years ago. What I want is the following:
when referring
to a \subsection, *if* we are in book mode I want something like
simply
`Section 3'. Instead, if we are in `single articles' mode, I want
something
like `Article-Title Section 3'. I hope I was clear enough.<br>

OK, I think I understand, but it is not an area in which I have any
expertise. I will investigate (when I have time) but others with
more experience in this area are more likely to be of help to you.
But (just a thought) -- assuming that "Article-Title Section 3" is
not the displayed text (this would be trivial) but is instead a
plain text representation of the contents of the hyperlink, is there
any reason why such a hyperlink could not also be used in book mode
