[Expo-tech] Therion advice wanted - *ref equivalent ?

Tunnel files can contain references to survex files.

But so far as I can see, none of our Therion files have such references.
Is there any way we could agree on a "standard comment format" of some kind
so that we can do this?

(Survex files didn't have the *ref field for many years but we used the
comment ;ref instead .)

The reason is that we can do data consistency checking with Tunnel now,
checking that the links actually go to valid files (once we have got rid of
the obvious "C:\REBECCA\... stuff) but we can't do anything comparable with
Therion - or can we ?

See http://expo.survex.com/xmlvalid.html for the link-checking online for
Tunnel files. 
You can click on the filenames and they work.
9 Tunnel files refer to svx files which don't exist.

PS A lot of rsync has been going on with fixing the svx <->surveyscans
references too http://expo.survex.com/svxvalid.html , it might be an idea to
update your own copies of expofiles/surveyscans/ with rsync.
