:link LINK-DATA'
Include an external link after the documentation string for this
item. This is a sentence containing an active field which
references some other documentation.
There are three alternatives you can use for LINK-DATA:
`(custom-manual INFO-NODE)'
Link to an Info node; INFO-NODE is a string which specifies
the node name, as in `\"(emacs)Top\"'. The link appears as
`[manual]' in the customization buffer.
`(info-link INFO-NODE)'
Like `custom-manual' except that the link appears in the
customization buffer with the Info node name.
`(url-link URL)'
Link to a web page; URL is a string which specifies the URL.
The link appears in the customization buffer as URL.
You can specify the text to use in the customization buffer by
adding `:tag NAME' after the first element of the LINK-DATA; for
example, `(info-link :tag \"foo\" \"(emacs)Top\")' makes a link to the
Emacs manual which appears in the buffer as `foo'.
An item can have more than one external link; however, most items
have none at all.
