 ==== Changes accepted ====
+=== Internal link and link recognized even if no name field is present ===
+Hi, great plugin, thank you. I have a patch that addresses 2 issues (I think).
+  - the current pattern matching system will misinterpret ''link:whatever'' as name if there is no name and no color. such as in<code doku rackexemple>
+<rack name=A20 height=42>
+1 Cableguide link:http://www.example.com/
+</rack>
+</code>
+  - Second, the ''link:somelink'' can only be an external link. With the //recently accepted// patch, it is now possible to use such links as ''%%link:[[page]]%%'', ''%%link:[[page|]]%%'' or ''%%link:[[ns:page|link title]]%%'' to point to internal pages.
