(Note: The change caused by this menu option is only 
visible by opening another hypertext file or by using 
a jump link to another file.)

The "Enable Bitmaps as Links" menu option is used 
to set a flag processed by the OnGetURLType 
method of the THyperTextParser component. This 
method is a key point to add new hypertext pro-
cessing to the system. The URL type value is used 
to determine how to handle a click on a link; by 
setting the value from a given type of file to a 
new number (beyond the basic 1-11) new processing 
of file types can be added. In this case, an image 
file (BMP, ICO, WMF) which is found as part of a 
URL that is not an image URL will be set as a new 
link type (12) that will place the image on a 
simple display form.
