To Artifact [7575376b14]:

• File www/sync.wiki — part of check-in [93cee1f56e] at 2021-09-17 02:02:44 on branch trunk — Converted all uses of the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#attr-name | obsolete] named anchor feature from HTML before 4.0 to use fragment identifiers instead. (<tt>www/*</tt> subtree only.) Where possible, changed constructs like <verbatim><a name="foo"></a><h3></verbatim> to <verbatim><h3 id="foo"></verbatim> Also fixed a few cases where the link target came after a header so the browser would scroll the header off the screen when visiting the targeted section. Added a 50em pad at the bottom of one such edited doc to allow the intra-doc link targets to be useful since it's a short enough doc that on sufficiently tall browser windows, scrolling isn't possible, so using those anchors has no visible effect.
